This patch adds a get_vhost() callback function for VirtIODevices that
returns the device's corresponding vhost_dev structure, if the vhost
device is running. This patch also adds a vhost_started flag for
VirtIODevices.
Previously, a VirtIODevice wouldn't be able to tell if its corresponding
vhost device was active or not.

This patch drops the name parameter for the virtio_init function.
The pair between the numeric device ID and the string device ID
(name) of a virtio device already exists, but not in a way that
lets us map between them.
This patch lets us do this and removes the need for the name
parameter in the virtio_init function.

Introduce a random number generator (RNG) backend that communicates
with a vhost-user server to retrieve entropy. That way other VMM
that comply with the vhost user protocl can use the same vhost-user
daemon without having to write yet another RNG driver.
