let's open nvdimm-related kernel config parameters on arm64, such as
CONFIG_ACPI_NFIT, etc. and we also need to backport patch
'kvm:arm64:Dynamic IPA and 52bit IPA'(https://patchwork.kernel.org/cover/10616271/)
and related dependency into v4.19.X to fully support nvdimm from guest kernel.
Former patch has already been merged into v4.20.X.

In some distros docker is already installed and the CI fails because the newer
version can't be installed because it conflicts with the old version. Remove
old version before installing the newer version of docker.

Unfortunately, at present we have no way of testing Kata packages for
Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) or SUSE Linux Enterprise (SLES).
Add warnings to the RHEL and SLES install guides explaining this and
advising users to exercise caution. Hopefully, we will be able to drop
this warning soon (either when we have the ability to test on RHEL/SLES
or when Kata packages are available in RHEL/SLES).
Fixes#396.

Add new flag "experimental" for supporting underworking features.
Some features are under developing which are not ready for release,
there're also some features which will break compatibility which is not
suitable to be merged into a kata minor release(x version in x.y.z)
For getting these features above merged earlier for more testing, we can
mark them as "experimental" features, and move them to formal features
when they are ready.

Reduce memory footprint ~7% by disabling some systemd services like
systemd-journald and systemd-udevd, those services are just consuming memory
and are not needed. For example kata-agent logs the errors through the proxy.

VMCache is a new function that creates VMs as caches before using it.
It helps speed up new container creation.
The function consists of a server and some clients communicating
through Unix socket. The protocol is gRPC in protocols/cache/cache.proto.
The VMCache server will create some VMs and cache them by factory cache.
It will convert the VM to gRPC format and transport it when gets
requestion from clients.
Factory grpccache is the VMCache client. It will request gRPC format
VM and convert it back to a VM. If VMCache function is enabled,
kata-runtime will request VM from factory grpccache when it creates
a new sandbox.
VMCache has two options.
vm_cache_number specifies the number of caches of VMCache:
unspecified or == 0 --> VMCache is disabled
> 0 --> will be set to the specified number
vm_cache_endpoint specifies the address of the Unix socket.
This commit just includes the core and the client of VMCache.
Currently, VM cache still cannot work with VM templating and vsock.
And just support qemu.
