The current only way to obtain pinned memory with libomptarget is to use a custom allocator llvm_omp_target_alloc_host.
This reflects well the CUDA implementation of libomptarget, but it does not correctly expose the AMDGPU runtime API,
where any system allocated page can be locked/unlocked through a call to hsa_amd_memory_lock/unlock.
This patch enables users to allocate memory through malloc (mmap, sbreak) and then pin the related memory pages
with a libomptarget special call. It is a base support in the amdgpu libomptarget plugin to enable users to prelock
their host memory pages so that the runtime doesn't need to lock them itself for asynchronous memory transfers.

Prepare amdgpu plugin for asynchronous implementation. This patch switches to using HSA API for asynchronous memory copy.
Moving away from hsa_memory_copy means that plugin is responsible for locking/unlocking host memory pointers.
