The vhost crate does not support the need_reply flag yet, meaning we
can't be sure the backend is properly setup before the guest goes on.
One can run in a race condition where the VMM enables the vring, but
never gets any acknowledgement, meaning it assumes everything went well
and finalize the virtio device activation. Once the device is seen as
ready by the guest, it keeps going by sending some messages through the
virtqueues. Problem is, if it took some time for the backend to enable
the queue, one of the backend thread might receive a kick from the guest
while the corresponding queue is not enabled. This leads to the loss of
the event as it is discarded because the queue is not enabled.
Until vhost crate allows for requests with ACK, the way to mitigate this
issue is by ignoring an event coming up on a queue that has not been
enabled.

The virtio features are negotiated and set at the time the device is
created, hence there's no need to set the features again while going
through the vhost-user setup that is performed upon queue activation.

Now that the control queue is correctly handled by the backend, there's
no need to handle it as well from the VMM.

The virtio-net control queue must be handled by the backend, the same
way all other queues already are.

This code is ported from the net_util.rs in virtio-devices. The point
being to move it to the net_util crate so that it can later be reused
from vhost-user-net backend.

Yet another small refactoring step for WindowsGuest
after f56471566b.
For this particular case - there's currently neither overloading nor
default argument support in Rust (except a macro or other tricky stuff),
so keep the timeout and other options default for now.

Mark it as unreachable for now in the default implementation as this is
currently only used on tdx code path which is KVM only.

Before this change, the FDT was loaded at the end of RAM. The address of
FDT was not fixed.
While UEFI (edk2 now) requires fixed address to find FDT and RSDP.
Now the FDT is moved to the beginning of RAM, which is a fixed address.
RSDP is wrote to 2 MiB after FDT, also a fixed address.
Kernel comes 2 MiB after RSDP.

These messages are predominantly during the boot process but will also
occur during events such as hotplug.
These cover all the significant steps of the boot and can be helpful for
diagnosing performance and functionality issues during the boot.

This will make `mkfs.ntfs` available in the next image update, so then
it can be used in the tests.

Separate the population of the memory and the HOB from the TDX
initialisation of the memory so that the latter can happen after the CPU
is initialised.

Some refactoring is performed in order to always expect the irqfd to be
provided by VirtioInterrupt trait. In case no irqfd is available, we
simply fail initializing the vhost-user device. This allows for further
simplification since we can assume the interrupt will always be
triggered directly by the vhost-user backend without proxying through
the VMM. This allows for complete removal of the dedicated thread for
both block and net.
vhost-user-fs is a bit more complex as it requires the slave request
protocol feature in order to support DAX. That's why we still need the
VMM to interfere and therefore run a dedicated thread for it.

Now all crates use edition = "2018" then the majority of the "extern

This will allow progressive porting of parts of the VMM to using
versioned state. A new trait VersionMapped is introduced with a default
implementation that returns an empty VersionMap to ease implementation.
If a struct is updated the the trait will need to be fully implemented
with VersionMapped::version_map() returning a new VersionMap handling
the change.
