The latest vhost version adds the support for the new commands
get_max_mem_slots(), add_mem_region() and remove_mem_region(), all
related to the new vhost-user protocol feature CONFIGURE_MEM_SLOTS.
The vhost_user_backend crate is updated accordingly in order to support
these new commands, mostly related to the capability of updating the
guest memory mappings with a finer control than set_mem_table() command.

Moving to the latest version of the rust-vmm/vhost crate, before it gets
published on crates.io.

The vhost crate from rust-vmm is ready, which is why we do the switch
from the Cloud Hypervisor fork to the upstream crate.
At the same time, we rename the crate from vhost_rs to vhost.

A new version of vm-memory was released upstream which resulted in some
components pulling in that new version. Update the version number used
to point to the latest version but continue to use our patched version
due to the fix for #1258

Split the generic virtio code (queues and device type) from the
VirtioDevice trait, transport and device implementations.
This also simplifies the feature handling in vhost_user_backend as the
vm-virtio crate is no longer has any features.

The logic for handling the networking queues can now be shared between
the version running in vhost-user-net and vm-virtio.

Previous to adding a a trait method to inform the backends of the acked
features backends can use features than the guest has not enabled which
could lead to unpredictable results.

Move the method that is used to decide whether the guest should be
signalled into the Queue implementation from vm-virtio. This removes
duplicated code between vhost_user_backend and the vm-virtio block
implementation.

Explicit call to 'close()' is required on file descriptors allocated
from 'epoll::create()', which is missing for the 'EpollContext' and
'VringWorker'. This patch enforces to close the file descriptors by
reusing the Drop trait of the 'File' struct.

Changes is vhost crate require VhostUserDaemon users to create and
provide a vhost::Listener in advance. This allows us to adopt
sandboxing strategies in the future, by being able to create the UNIX
socket before switching to a restricted namespace.
Update also the reference to vhost crate in Cargo.lock to point to the
latest commit from the dragonball branch.

By adding a "thread_id" parameter to handle_event(), the backend crate
can now indicate to the backend implementation which thread triggered
the processing of some events.
This is applied to vhost-user-net backend and allows for simplifying a
lot the code since each thread is identical.

By adding the "thread_index" parameter to the function exit_event() from
the VhostUserBackend trait, the backend crate now has the ability to ask
the backend implementation about the exit event related to a specific
thread.

Now that multiple worker threads can be run from the backend crate, it
is important that each backend implementation can access every worker
thread.

In order to support multiqueues running on multiple threads for
increasing the IO performances, this commit introduces a new function
queues_per_thread() to the VhostUserBackend trait.
This gives each backend implementation the opportunity to define which
queues belong to which thread.

By changing the mutability of this function, after adapting all
backends, we should be able to implement multithreads with
multiqueues support without hitting a bottleneck on the backend
locking.

This change, combined with the compiler hint to inline get_used_event,
shortens the window between the memory read and the actual check by
calling get_used_event from needs_notification.
Without it, when putting enough pressure on the vring, it's possible
that a notification is wrongly omitted, causing the queue to stall.
