[PATCH v1 8/8] selftests: kho: add read-only KHO test to vmtest.sh

Extend tools/testing/selftests/kho/vmtest.sh and init.c to run a second
QEMU test verifying read-only KHO ('kho_ro=<fdt_phys>') after the
standard KHO test on both x86_64 and aarch64:
- Build a second kernel configured with CONFIG_KEXEC_HANDOVER_READONLY=y
(and CONFIG_KEXEC_HANDOVER=n).
- Pass KHO_RO_CMDLINE ('nokaslr kho_bootmem=64M,64M,64M' on x86_64,
'cma=116M at 0x40c00000' on aarch64) to the first kernel in the read-only
test run so KHO allocations are placed in predictable physical ranges.
- When booted with 'kho_ro_test', read /debugfs/kho/out/fdt_phys in
init.c and kexec into the read-only kernel with 'kho_ro=<fdt_phys>'
and architecture-specific memory parameters
('memmap=792M$16M memmap=24M$1000M' on x86_64,
'mem=128M cma=12M at 0x40000000' on aarch64) so the preserved pages are
excluded from the boot memory map and mapped via kho_ro_map_folio().
- Verify 'KHO restore succeeded' from test_kho in read-only mode.
