As discussed in the working PR in the upstream vm-memory crate repo,
some special functions (e.g. return raw pointers to the wrapped guest
memory) require manual dirty page tracking from their users (e.g.the
VMM). One of the special functions is `VolatileSlice::as_ptr(), which is
used in our code base for supporting async block I/O. This patch
manually mark dirty for guest pages touched while reading from block
devices.

Live migration currently handles guest memory writes from the guest
through the KVM dirty page tracking and sends those dirty pages to the
destination. This patch augments the live migration support with dirty
page tracking of writes from the VMM to the guest memory(e.g. virtio
devices).
Fixes: #2458

Function "GuestMemory::with_regions(_mut)" were mainly temporary methods
to access the regions in `GuestMemory` as the lack of iterator-based
access, and hence they are deprecated in the upstream vm-memory crate [1].

As the first step to complete live-migration with tracking dirty-pages
written by the VMM, this commit patches the dependent vm-memory crate to
the upstream version with the dirty-page-tracking capability. Most
changes are due to the updated `GuestMemoryMmap`, `GuestRegionMmap`, and
`MmapRegion` structs which are taking an additional generic type
parameter to specify what 'bitmap backend' is used.
The above changes should be transparent to the rest of the code base,
e.g. all unit/integration tests should pass without additional changes.

When in client mode, the VMM will retry connecting the backend for a
minute before giving up.

The reconnection code is moved to the vhost-user module as it is a
common place to be shared across all vhost-user devices.

This commit implements the reconnection feature for vhost-user-net in
case the connection with the backend is shutdown.
The guest has no knowledge about what happens when a disconnection
occurs, which simplifies the code to handle the reconnection. The
reconnection happens with the backend, and the VMM goes through the
vhost-user setup once again.

After adding "get_interrupt_controller()" function in DeviceManager,
"enable_interrupt_controller()" became redundant, because the latter
one is the a simple wrapper on the interrupt controller.

The function used to calculate "gicr-typer" value has nothing with

In order to avoid regression regarding OVS-DPDK support, a new
integration test is added. This test consists of running two VMs, both
attached to a distinct OVS port, where both ports are connected to an
OVS bridge. Once the VM are running, the test validates the connection
between the two VMs works correctly.

Adding a new function ssh_command_ok() as a wrapper around the existing

The Dockerfile is extended with some new instructions to install the
OVS-DPDK packages. This will be useful for writing new integration tests
and make sure OVS-DPDK is working properly.
This also updates the Rust toolchain from 1.51.0 to 1.52.1.

We recently realized the control queue is not meant to be handled by the
backend, that's why we move it out of vhost-user-net implementation.
Revert "vhost_user_net: Handle control queue"
This reverts commit af88ff1c49.

We thought we could move the control queue to the backend as it was
making some good sense. Unfortunately, doing so was a wrong design
decision as it broke the compatibility with OVS-DPDK backend.
This is why this commit moves the control queue back to the VMM side,
meaning an additional thread is being run for handling the communication
with the guest.

A lot of the VIRTIO reserved features should be supported or not by the
vhost-user backend. That means on the VMM side, these features should be
available, so that they don't get lost during the negotiation.
