A file based memory backend mapped to the host, fot eg: '/dev/shm' will
be used by virtio-fs for performance reasons. This change is a generic
implementation of that for kata. This will be enabled default for
virtio-fs negating the need to enable hugepages in that scenario. This
option can be used without virtio-fs by setting 'file_mem_backend' to
the location in the configuration file. Default value is an empty
string.

When using experimental feature "newstore", we save and load devices
information from `persist.json` instead of `devices.json`, in such case,
file `devices.json` isn't needed anymore, so remove it.

The disk persist data should be "versioned" and baselined, any modification in
persist data should be considered potential break of backward compatibility.
