This is a step toward making TranslationBlock agnostic

My understanding is tb_page_addr_t is QEMU internal, not exposed
to the guest, thus abi_ulong isn't required. It was a tiny memory
optimization we could do when abi_ulong is 32-bit. Therefore we
can widen the type, unifying/simplifying TB management on the host.
Is that correct?

Yes, exactly.
