5105b1d8c2 ivshmem: add check on protocol version in QEMU
Send a protocol version as the first message from server, clients must
close communication if they don't support this protocol version.  Older
QEMUs should be fine with this change in the protocol since they
overrides their own vm_id on reception of an id associated to no
eventfd.
