This regex is used for auto-balloon mode detection based on Xen command line.

The case of specifying a negative size was handled incorrectly.
From misc/xen-command-line documentation:

    dom0_mem (x86)
    = List of ( min:<sz> | max:<sz> | <sz> )

    If a size is positive, it represents an absolute value.
    If a size is negative, it is subtracted from the total available memory.

Also add support for [tT] granularity suffix.
Also add support for memory fractions (i.e. '50%' or '1G+25%').

Changes in v5:
- add Anthony's reviewed-by

Changes in v4:
- improve regex after code review

Changes in v3:
- add support for [tT] granularity suffix
- add support for memory fractions

Changes in v2:
- add missing Signed-off-by tag

NB! New autoballon regex pattern is good enough, but not fully correct.
See test below.

```
import pytest
import re

size_pattern = r"-?[0-9]+[bBkKmMgGtT]?"
pattern = r"(^| )dom0_mem=((|min:|max:)({size}|({size}\+)?[0-9]{{1,2}}%),?)+($| )".format(size=size_pattern)

@pytest.mark.parametrize('cmdline', [
    'dom0_mem=1',
    ' dom0_mem=1',
    'dom0_mem=1G',
    'dom0_mem=25%',
    'dom0_mem=1g+25% ',
    ' dom0_mem=1G+10%,max:100T+50%',
    'dom0_mem=-1B',
    'dom0_mem=-10240M+5%,min:512M ',
    ' dom0_mem=min:-2048m,max:-2048M ',
])
def test_autoballoon_regex_match(cmdline):
    assert re.match(pattern, cmdline)

@pytest.mark.parametrize('cmdline', [
    'dom0_mem = 1',
    'dom0_mem= ',
    'dom0_mem',
    'DOM0_mem=10G',
    'dom0_mem=-10%', # does not pass
    ' dom0_mem=-10%+10G ',
    'dom0_mem=1G,', # does not pass
    'dom0_mem=1G,max:25%,', #does not pass
])
def test_autoballoon_regex_dont_match(cmdline):
    assert not re.match(pattern, cmdline)
