Obligatory bikeshedding, why not just ram (the MachineState field can
remain "ram_memdev"). Or memory-backend matching the QOM type names.
I'd say it was inspired by "-numa node,memdev" option for some sort of
consistency.
But I'm fine with any other name as far as there is consensus.
If I had to choose between 'ram' and 'memory-backend', I'd go for the later.
