libxc: x86: ensure that the initial mapping fits into the guest's memory

In particular we need to check that adding 512KB of slack and
rounding up to a 4MB boundary do not overflow the guest's memory
allocation. Otherwise we run off the end of the p2m when building the
guest's initial page tables and populate them with garbage.

Wei noticed this when build tiny (2MB) mini-os domains.

v2: Correctly account for virt_base, thanks Jan. Now tested with 32 and 
    64 bit pvops kernels.
