    accel/tcg: better handle memory constrained systems
    
    It turns out there are some 64 bit systems that have relatively low
    amounts of physical memory available to them (typically CI system).
    Even with swapping available a 1GB translation buffer that fills up
    can put the machine under increased memory pressure. Detect these low
    memory situations and reduce tb_size appropriately.
    
    Fixes: 600e17b2615 ("accel/tcg: increase default code gen buffer size for 
64 bit")
