machine: add missing doc for memory-backend option

Add documentation for '-machine memory-backend' CLI option and
how to use it.

And document that x-use-canonical-path-for-ramblock-id,
is considered to be stable to make sure it won't go away by accident.

x- was intended for unstable/iternal properties, and not supposed to
be stable option. However it's too late to rename (drop x-)
it as it would mean that users will have to mantain both
x-use-canonical-path-for-ramblock-id (for QEMU 5.0-5.2) versions
and prefix-less for later versions.
