UFFD handling of MINOR faults is a new feature whose use case is to
speed up demand paging (compared to MISSING faults). So, it's
interesting to let this selftest exercise this new mode.
Modify the demand paging test to have the option of using UFFD minor
faults, as opposed to missing faults. Now, when turning on userfaultfd
with '-u', the desired mode has to be specified ("MISSING" or "MINOR").
If we're in minor mode, before registering, prefault via the *alias*.
This way, the guest will trigger minor faults, instead of missing
faults, and we can UFFDIO_CONTINUE to resolve them.
Modify the page fault handler function to use the right ioctl depending
on the mode we're running in. In MINOR mode, use UFFDIO_CONTINUE.

Would it be worth timing this operation? I think we'd need to know how
long we spent prefaulting the memory to really be able to compare UDDF
modes using this test.

It's easy to time it and print out a value, so I'm happy to add it.
As for how useful it is, I'm not so sure. In general the way I think
of it is, the prefaulting would happen during the precopy phase of
live migration. During this phase, the VM is still running on the
source machine, so the VM owner doesn't notice any performance
degradation or slowness in this phase.

Changed to "[-m vm_mode] [-u uffd_mode]".
