Unlike the Vmm structure we removed with commit bdfd1a3f, this new one
is really meant to represent the VM monitoring/management object.
For that, we implement a control loop that will replace the one that's
currently embedded within the Vm structure itself.
This will allow us to decouple the VM lifecycle management from the VM
object itself, by having a constantly running VMM control loop.
Besides the VM specific events (exit, reset, stdin for now), the VMM
control loop also handles all the Cloud Hypervisor IPC requests.

Cloud Hypervisor IPC is a simple, mpsc based protocol for threads to
send command to the furture VMM thread. This patch adds the API
definition for that IPC, which will be used by both the main thread
to e.g. start a new VM based on the CLI arguments and the future HTTP
server to relay external requests received from a local Unix domain
socket.
We are moving it to its own "api" module because this is where the
external API (HTTP based) will also be implemented.
The VMM thread will be listening for IPC requests from an mpsc receiver,
process them and send a response back through another mpsc channel.

The default number of MSI-X vector allocated was 2, which is the minimum
defined by the virtio specification. The reason for this minimum is that
virtio needs at least one interrupt to signal that configuration changed
and at least one to specify something happened regarding the virtqueues.
But this current implementation is not optimal because our VMM supports
as many MSI-X vectors as allowed by the MSI-X specification (2048 max).
For that reason, the current patch relies on the number of virtqueues
needed by the virtio device to determine the right amount of MSI-X
vectors needed. It's important not to forget the dedicated vector for
any configuration change too.

Following the refactoring of the code allowing multiple threads to
access the same instance of the guest memory, this patch goes one step
further by adding RwLock to it. This anticipates the future need for
being able to modify the content of the guest memory at runtime.
The reasons for adding regions to an existing guest memory could be:
- Add virtio-pmem and virtio-fs regions after the guest memory was
created.
- Support future hotplug of devices, memory, or anything that would
require more memory at runtime.
Because most of the time, the lock will be taken as read only, using

One of the features of the virtio console device is its size can be
configured and updated. Our first iteration of the console device
implementation is lack of this feature. As a result, it had a
default fixed size which could not be changed. This commit implements
the console config feature and lets us change the console size from
the vmm side.
During the activation of the device, vmm reads the current terminal
size, sets the console configuration accordinly, and lets the driver
know about this configuration by sending an interrupt. Later, if
someone changes the terminal size, the vmm detects the corresponding
event, updates the configuration, and sends interrupt as before. As a
result, the console device driver, in the guest, updates the console
size.
