The values returned by eth_get_protocols() are used to perform RSS,
checksumming and segmentation. Even when a packet signals the use of the
protocols which these operations can be applied to, the headers for them
may not be present because of too short packet or fragmentation, for
example. In such a case, the operations cannot be applied safely.
Report the presence of headers instead of whether the use of the
protocols are indicated with eth_get_protocols(). This also makes
corresponding changes to the callers of eth_get_protocols() to match
with its new signature and to remove redundant checks for fragmentation.

This patch aims to fix unexpected negotiation features for

When openvswitch reconnect Qemu after an unexpected disconnection
and Qemu therefore start the vhost_dev, acked_features field in
vhost_dev is initialized with value fetched from acked_features
field in NetVhostUserState, which should be up-to-date at that
moment but Qemu could not make it actually during the time window
of virtio features negotiation.
So we save the acked_features right after being configured by
guest virtio driver so it can be used to restore acked_features

As qemu_opts_parse_noisily() flattens the QAPI structures ("type" field
of Netdev structure can collides with "type" field of SocketAddress),
we introduce a way to bypass qemu_opts_parse_noisily() and use directly
visit_type_Netdev() to parse the backend parameters.
More details from Markus:
qemu_init() passes the argument of -netdev, -nic, and -net to
net_client_parse().
net_client_parse() parses with qemu_opts_parse_noisily(), passing
QemuOptsList qemu_netdev_opts for -netdev, qemu_nic_opts for -nic, and
qemu_net_opts for -net. Their desc[] are all empty, which means any
keys are accepted. The result of the parse (a QemuOpts) is stored in
the QemuOptsList.
Note that QemuOpts is flat by design. In some places, we layer non-flat
on top using dotted keys convention, but not here.
net_init_clients() iterates over the stored QemuOpts, and passes them to
net_init_netdev(), net_param_nic(), or net_init_client(), respectively.
These functions pass the QemuOpts to net_client_init(). They also do
other things with the QemuOpts, which we can ignore here.
net_client_init() uses the opts visitor to convert the (flat) QemOpts to
a (non-flat) QAPI object Netdev. Netdev is also the argument of QMP
command netdev_add.
The opts visitor was an early attempt to support QAPI in
(QemuOpts-based) CLI. It restricts QAPI types to a certain shape; see
commit eb7ee2cbeb "qapi: introduce OptsVisitor".
A more modern way to support QAPI is qobject_input_visitor_new_str().
It uses keyval_parse() instead of QemuOpts for KEY=VALUE,... syntax, and
it also supports JSON syntax. The former isn't quite as expressive as
JSON, but it's a lot closer than QemuOpts + opts visitor.
This commit paves the way to use of the modern way instead.

Some network backends (vhost-user and vhost-vdpa) work only with

option handling will do and error out if they think a non-virtio device
will attach to them.
This second guessing is not only ugly, it can lead to wrong error
messages ('-device floppy,netdev=foo' should complain about an unknown
property, not about the wrong kind of network device being attached) and
completely ignores hotplugging.
Add a callback where backends can check compatibility with a device when
it actually tries to attach, even on hotplug.
