move memory discovery to the Architecture trait

Memory discovery (finding how much we have, where etc...) shouldn't be
hardcoded in `mm/mod.rs`. Instead it should be in the Architecture trait
so that each platform can do its thing (riscv/arm => device tree, x86 =>
multiboot info or e820).

Originaly I just wanted a `memory_regions -> impl Iterator<Item=T>`
method in the Architecture trait. But oh boy no...
Currently a method that returns an impl Trait is not possible (rustc
1.59.0-nightly).
In the future, this should be possible, see: rust-lang/rust#63066

Meanwhile, this is what I came up with.
Since I can't return an impl Trait but I can pass one as parameter, I
have a `for_all_memory_regions` method that creates the iterator and
then calls the closure with that parameter. Code that uses that is a bit
more ugly and less clear than if I could have returned an impl Trait,
but it should do for now. This MUST be fixed when the above issue is
resolved.
Also the type signatures are a bit *complex*, this is due to my vicious
fight with the rust borrow-checking-and-mighty-type-checking gods of
Rust.

Last but not least, a quote from the great:
Tout est simple, tout est complexe, a vous de trouver la solution, une solution peut en cacher une autre
