migration: defer migration_end & blk_mig_cleanup

Because of the patch 3ea3b7fa9af067982f34b of kvm, which introduces a
lazy collapsing of small sptes into large sptes mechanism, now
migration_end() is a time consuming operation because it calls
memroy_global_dirty_log_stop(), which will trigger the dropping of small
sptes operation and takes about dozens of milliseconds, so call
migration_end() before all the vmsate data has already been transferred
to the destination will prolong VM downtime. This operation should be
deferred after all the data has been transferred to the destination.

blk_mig_cleanup() can be deferred too.

For a VM with 8G RAM, this patch can reduce the VM downtime about 30 ms.
