Subject: hotplug emulator:extend memory probe interface to support NUMA

Extend memory probe interface to support an extra paramter nid,
the reserved memory can be added into this node if node exists.

Add a memory section(128M) to node 3(boots with mem=1024m)

echo 0x40000000,3 > memory/probe

And more we make it friendly, it is possible to add memory to do

echo 3g > memory/probe
echo 1024m,3 > memory/probe

It maintains backwards compatibility.
