Yang, Zhiyong April 6, 2018, 9:25 a.m. UTC
  In a container environment if the vhost-user backend restarts, there's
no way for it to reconnect to virtio-user. To address this, support for
server mode is added. In this mode the socket file is created by virtio-
user, which the backend then connects to. This means that if the backend
restarts, it can reconnect to virtio-user and continue communications.

With current implementation, LSC is enabled at virtio-user side to
support to accept the coming connection.

Server mode virtio-user only supports to work with vhost-user.

Release note is updated in this patch.

Changes in V7:
1. avoid misusing vhost-kernel in server mode virtio-user.
2. move the funciton definition is_vhost_user_by_type before 
virtio_user_start_device in order that it can be called.
3. add comments in the code to state feature negotiation limit.

Changes in V6:
1. fix report wrong link stauts in server mode.
2. fix some code style issues.

Changes in V5:
1. Support server mode virtio-user startup in non-blocking mode.
2. rebase on top of dpdk-next-virtio.

Changes in V4:
1. Don't create new pthread any more and use librte_eal interrupt thread
instead. 

Changes in V3:
1. use EAL epoll mechanism instead of vhost events. Cancel to export vhost
event APIs.
2. rebase the code on top of dpdk-next-virtio

Changes in V2:
1. split two patches 1/5 and 2/5 from v1 patchset to fix some existing issues
which is not strongly related to support for server mode
2. move fdset related functions to librte_eal from librte_vhost exposed as
new APIs.
3. release note is added in the patch 5/5.
4. squash data structure change patch into 4/5 according to Maxime's suggestion.

+* **Added support for virtio-user server mode.**
+  In a container environment if the vhost-user backend restarts, there's no way
+  for it to reconnect to virtio-user. To address this, support for server mode
+  is added. In this mode the socket file is created by virtio-user, which the
