Despite setting up a dedicated thread for signal handling, we weren't
making sure that the signals we were listening for there were actually
dispatched to the right thread. While the signal-hook provides an
iterator API, so we can know that we're only processing the signals
coming out of the iterator on our signal handling thread, the actual
signal handling code from signal-hook, which pushes the signals onto
the iterator, can run on any thread. This can lead to seccomp
violations when the signal-hook signal handler does something that
isn't allowed on that thread by our seccomp policy.
To reproduce, resize a terminal running cloud-hypervisor continuously
for a few minutes. Eventually, the kernel will deliver a SIGWINCH to
a thread with a restrictive seccomp policy, and a seccomp violation
will trigger.
As part of this change, it's also necessary to allow rt_sigreturn(2)
on the signal handling thread, so signal handlers are actually allowed
to run on it. The fact that this didn't seem to be needed before
makes me think that signal handlers were almost _never_ actually
running on the signal handling thread.

Add the ability for cloud-hypervisor to create, manage and monitor a
pty for serial and/or console I/O from a user. The reasoning for
having cloud-hypervisor create the ptys is so that clients, libvirt
for example, could exit and later re-open the pty without causing I/O
issues. If the clients were responsible for creating the pty, when
they exit the main pty fd would close and cause cloud-hypervisor to
get I/O errors on writes.
Ideally the main and subordinate pty fds would be kept in the main
vmm's Vm structure. However, because the device manager owns parsing
the configuration for the serial and console devices, the information
is instead stored in new fields under the DeviceManager structure
directly.
From there hooking up the main fd is intended to look as close to
handling stdin and stdout on the tty as possible (there is some future
work ahead for perhaps moving support for the pty into the
vmm_sys_utils crate).
The main fd is used for reading user input and writing to output of
the Vm device. The subordinate fd is used to setup raw mode and it is
kept open in order to avoid I/O errors when clients open and close the
pty device.
The ability to handle multiple inputs as part of this change is
intentional. The current code allows serial and console ptys to be
created and both be used as input. There was an implementation gap
though with the queue_input_bytes needing to be modified so the pty
handlers for serial and console could access the methods on the serial
and console structures directly. Without this change only a single
input source could be processed as the console would switch based on
its input type (this is still valid for tty and isn't otherwise
modified).

The standalone `--balloon` parameter being fully functional at this

Signed-off-by: Sebastien Boeuf <sebastien.boeuf@intel.com>
Now that we have a new dedicated way of asking for a balloon through the
CLI and the REST API, we can move all the balloon code to the device
manager. This allows us to simplify the memory manager, which is already
quite complex.
It also simplifies the behavior of the balloon resizing command. Instead
of providing the expected size for the RAM, which is complex when memory
zones are involved, it now expects the balloon size. This is a much more
straightforward behavior as it really resizes the balloon to the desired
size. Additionally to the simplication, the benefit of this approach is
that it does not need to be tied to the memory manager at all.

This commit adds new option hotplug_method to memory config.
It can set the hotplug method to "acpi" or "virtio-mem".

This change introduces a new CLI option --seccomp. This allows the user
to enable/disable the seccomp filters when needed. Because the user now
has the possibility to disable the seccomp filters, and because the
Cloud-Hypervisor project wants to enforce the maximum security by
default, the seccomp filters are now applied by default.

This commit introduces the application of the seccomp filter to the VMM
thread. The filter is empty for now (SeccompLevel::None).

This opens the backing file read-only, makes the pages in the mmap()
read-only and also makes the KVM mapping read-only. The file is also
mapped with MAP_PRIVATE to make the changes local to this process only.
This is functional alternative to having support for making a
virtio-pmem device readonly. Unfortunately there is no concept of
readonly virtio-pmem (or any type of NVDIMM/PMEM) in the Linux kernel so
to be able to have a block device that is appears readonly in the guest
requires significant specification and kernel changes.

Extended attributes (xattr) support has a huge impact on write
performance. The reason for this is that, if enabled, FUSE sends a
setxattr request after each write operation, and due to the inode
locking inside the kernel during said request, the ability to execute
the operations in parallel becomes heavily limited.

This change enables vhost_user_fs to process multiple requests in
parallel by scheduling them into a ThreadPool (from the Futures
crate).
Parallelism on a single file is limited by the nature of the operation
executed on it. A recent commit replaced the Mutex that protects the
File within HandleData with a RwLock, to allow some operations (at
this moment, only "read" and "write") to proceed in parallel by
acquiring a read lock.
A more complex approach was also implemented [1], involving
instrumentation through vhost_user_backend to be able to serialize
completions, reducing the pressure on the vring RwLock. This strategy
improved the performance on some corner cases, while making it worse
on other, more common ones. This fact, in addition to it requiring
wider changes through the source code, prompted me to drop it in favor
of this one.

This option was superseded by using "--net" with "vhost_user=true". This
option wasn't being parsed any more but was left over.

Some of the help strings had extra newlines in them or otherwise strange
wrapping. The strings were rewrapped with the nightly version of rustfmt
that supports string formatting.
