Commit 31190ed7 added a migration blocker in vhost_dev_init() to
check if memfd would succeed. It is better if this blocker first
checks if vhost backend requires shared log. This will avoid a
situation where a blocker is added inappropriately (e.g. shared
log allocation fails when vhost backend doesn't support it).

Use of int is problematic because it can result in signed/unsigned

QEMU prints an error message and exits when the device enters an invalid

able to function even if there is a bug in a virtio guest driver.
Moreover, exiting is a bug in nested virtualization where a nested guest
could DoS other nested guests by killing a pass-through virtio device.
I don't think this configuration is possible today but it is likely in
the future.
If the broken flag is set, do not process virtqueues or write back used

Currently, devices are plugged before features are negotiated.
If the backend doesn't support VIRTIO_F_VERSION_1, the transport
needs to rewind some settings.
This is the case for CCW, for which a post_plugged callback had
been introduced, where max_rev field is just updated if
VIRTIO_F_VERSION_1 is not supported by the backend.
For PCI, implementing post_plugged would be much more
complicated, so it needs to know whether the backend supports
VIRTIO_F_VERSION_1 at plug time.
Currently, nothing is done for PCI. Modern capabilities get
exposed to the guest even if VIRTIO_F_VERSION_1 is not supported
by the backend, which confuses the guest.
This patch replaces existing post_plugged solution with an
approach that fits with both transports.
Features negotiation is performed before ->device_plugged() call.
A pre_plugged callback is introduced so that the transports can
set their supported features.
