Because the vhost_user_backend crate needs some changes to support
moving the process to a different mount namespace and perform a pivot
root, it is not possible to change '/' to the given shared directory.
This commit, as a temporary measure, let the code point at the given
shared directory.
The long term solution is to perform the mount namespace change and the
pivot root as this will provide greater security.

This patch implements a vhost-user-fs daemon based on Rust. It only
supports communicating through the virtqueues. The support for the
shared memory region associated with DAX will be added later.
It relies on all the code copied over from the crosvm repository, based
on the commit 961461350c0b6824e5f20655031bf6c6bf6b7c30.
It also relies on the vhost_user_backend crate, limiting the amount of
code needed to get this daemon up and running.
