Stefan Hajnoczi a9a5c473d2 libvhost-user: advertise vring features
libvhost-user implements several vring features without advertising
them. There is no way for the vhost-user master to detect support for
these features.

Things more or less work today because QEMU assumes the vhost-user
backend always implements certain feature bits like
VIRTIO_RING_F_EVENT_IDX. This is not documented anywhere.

This patch explicitly advertises features implemented in libvhost-user
so that the vhost-user master does not need to make undocumented
assumptions.

Feature bits that libvhost-user now advertises can be removed from
vhost-user-blk.c. Devices should not be responsible for advertising
vring feature bits, that is libvhost-user's job.
