As recent CVE-2023-2861 (fixed by f6b0de53fb) once again showed, the 9p
'proxy' fs driver is in bad shape. Using the 'proxy' backend was already
discouraged for safety reasons before and we recommended to use the
'local' backend (preferably in conjunction with its 'mapped' security
model) instead, but now it is time to officially deprecate the 'proxy'
backend.

And rename v9fs_marshal to v9fs_iov_marshal, v9fs_unmarshal to
v9fs_iov_unmarshal.
The rationale behind this change is that, this marshalling interface is
used both by virtio and proxy helper. Renaming files and functions to
reflect the true nature of this interface.
Xen transport is going to have its own marshalling interface.

Those two files are not virtio specific. Rename them to use generic
names.
Fix includes in various C files. Change define guards and comments
in header files.
