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.

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.

Moving helpers to the net_util crate since we don't want virtio-net
common code to be split between two places. The net_util crate should be
the only place to host virtio-net common code.

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.

Now all crates use edition = "2018" then the majority of the "extern
crate" statements can be removed. Only those for importing macros need
to remain.

EpollHelper allows the removal of much duplicated loop handling code and
instead the device specific even handling is delegated via an
implementation of EpollHelperHandler.

Move NetQueuePair and the related NetCounters into the net_util crate.
This means that the vhost_user_net crate now no longer depends on
virtio-devices and so does not depend on the pci, qcow or other similar
crates. This significantly simplifies the build chain for this backend.

By moving the code for opening the two RX and TX queues into a shared
location we are starting to remove the requirement for the
vhost-user-net backend to depend on the virtio-devices crate which in of
itself depends on many other crates that are not necessary for the
backend to function.

The newly added virtio-net implementation needs to interact with TAP
interfaces and MAC addresses, which is the reason why it is easier
to rely on existing packages net_util and net_gen.
One more thing, both net_util and net_gen could be trimmed down,
based on using only the things we need from cloud-hypervisor.
Both net_util, net_gen and sys_util are based on Firecracker
commit d4a89cdc0bd2867f821e3678328dabad6dd8b767.
