1f8b6fa947 net_util: Allow retrieving the MAC address from the TAP device
This can be used to preserve the host MAC address as part of the
configuration when the TAP device is precreated.

929d70bc7f net_util: Only try and enable the TAP device if it not already enabled
This allows an existing TAP interface to be used without needing
CAP_NET_ADMIN permissions on the Cloud Hypervisor binary as the ioctl to
bring up the interface is avoided.

c31ad72ee9 build: Address issues found by 1.43.0 clippy
These are mostly due to use of "bare use" statements and unnecessary vector
creation.

1befae872d build: Fixed build errors and warnings on AArch64
This is a preparing commit to build and test CH on AArch64. All building
issues were fixed, but no functionality was introduced.
For X86, the logic of code was not changed at all.
For ARM, the architecture specific part is still empty. And we applied
some tricks to workaround lint warnings. But such code will be replaced
later by other commits with real functionality.

HW address to match the desired address. Preserving the rest of the
state including the address type.

In order to identify better the problem whenever an existing TAP is
provided, this patch enhances the error returned for an easier
diagnosis of the problem.

f6d1a9d9b8 src: Add vhost-user-net backend
Create vhost-user-net backend with Tap interface, to offload network
transaction from cloud-hypervisor. The goal is to provide flexibility
about the backend being in use, but also more security as it will allow
users to isolate the backend with different security profiles since it
will run as a dedicated process on the host.

53f5295454 network: Add virtio-net dependencies
The newly added virtio-net implementation needs to interact with TAP
interfaces and MAC addresses, which is the reason why it is easier
to rely on existing packages net_util and net_gen.

One more thing, both net_util and net_gen could be trimmed down,
based on using only the things we need from cloud-hypervisor.

Both net_util, net_gen and sys_util are based on Firecracker
commit d4a89cdc0bd2867f821e3678328dabad6dd8b767.
