Subject: [PATCH] qemu: Drop qemuDomainMemoryLimit

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1001143

This function is to guess the correct limit for maximal memory
usage by qemu for given domain. This can never be guessed
correctly, not to mention all the pains and sleepless nights this
code has caused. Once somebody discovers algorithm to solve the
Halting Problem, we can compute the limit algorithmically. But
till then, this code should never see the light of the release
again.
(cherry picked from commit 16bcb3b61675a88bff00317336b9610080c31000)
