qemu-options.hx: Fix formatting of -machine memory-backend option
The documentation of the -machine memory-backend has some minor
formatting errors:
* Misindentation of the initial line meant that the whole option
section is incorrectly indented in the HTML output compared to
the other -machine options
* The examples weren't indented, which meant that they were formatted
as plain run-on text including outputting the "::" as text.
* The a) b) list has no rst-format markup so it is rendered as
a single run-on paragraph
Fix the formatting.
