Calling libvhost-user functions like vu_queue_get_avail_bytes() when the
queue doesn't yet have addresses will result in the crashes like the
following:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Add a pre-condition checks on vring.avail before accessing it.
Fix documentation and return type of vu_queue_empty() while at it.

Add a library to help implementing vhost-user backend (or slave).
Dealing with vhost-user as an application developer isn't so easy: you
have all the trouble with any protocol: validation, unix ancillary data,
shared memory, eventfd, logging, and on top of that you need to deal
with virtio queues, if possible efficiently.
qemu test has a nice vhost-user testing application vhost-user-bridge,
which implements most of vhost-user, and virtio.c which implements
virtqueues manipulation. Based on these two, I tried to make a simple
library, reusable for tests or development of new vhost-user scenarios.
