[PATCH 03/13] gpu: nova-core: vgpu: add VRAM slot allocator

[Zhi Wang]

From: Alok Kumar <alkumar@xxxxxxxxxx>

vGPU profiles need fixed-size framebuffer and plugin management-heap
regions for each instance. Allocating them independently fragments VRAM
and does not preserve a stable profile-wide layout.

Add a standalone slot allocator that reserves one exact VRAM range and
tracks assignments in a bitmap. Validate the profile layout and reject
an allocation request whose layout differs from the active pool.

Lay out all framebuffer slots first and all management-heap slots
second, pairing them by bitmap index. Require the framebuffer stride and
pool base to satisfy the profile VMMU-segment alignment.

Keep the pool in an Arc<VramBlock> and return checked VramRegion views
for each slot. This lets consumers map a subrange while retaining the
complete buddy allocation for as long as any view remains alive.
