    mem_sharing: reset a fork
    
    Implement hypercall that allows a fork to shed all memory that got allocated
    for it during its execution and re-load its vCPU context from the parent VM.
    This allows the forked VM to reset into the same state the parent VM is in a
    faster way then creating a new fork would be. Measurements show about a 2x
    speedup during normal fuzzing operations. Performance may vary depending how
    much memory got allocated for the forked VM. If it has been completely
    deduplicated from the parent VM then creating a new fork would likely be 
more
    performant.
