Subject: [PATCH] Make lguest example launcher non-static and simplify

Linus, please apply.

S.Caglar Onur points out that many distributions don't ship a static
zlib.  Unfortunately the launcher currently maps virtual device memory
where shared libraries want to go.

The solution is to pre-scan the args to figure out how much memory we
have, then allocate devices above that, rather than down from the top
possible address.  This also turns out to be simpler.
