Fake dirty loggin when it's not there

Some KVM platforms don't support dirty logging yet, like IA64 and PPC,
so in order to still have screen updates on those, we need to fake it.

This patch just tells the getter function for dirty bitmaps, that all
pages within a slot are dirty when the slot has dirty logging enabled.

That way we can implement dirty logging on those platforms sometime when
it drags down performance, but share the rest of the code with dirty
logging capable platforms.
