pci: Implement callbacks for toggling BAR emulation
Implement callbacks for activating and deactivating emulation for a BAR region. This is in preparation for allowing a guest operating system to enable and disable access to I/O or memory space, or to reassign the BARs. The emulated vesa device framebuffer isn't designed to allow stopping and restarting at arbitrary points in the guest execution. Furthermore, on x86, the kernel will not change the BAR addresses, which on bare metal are programmed by the firmware, so take the easy way out and refuse to activate/deactivate emulation for the BAR regions. We also take this opportunity to make the vesa emulation code more consistent by moving all static variable definitions in one place, at the top of the file.
