Use the control virtqueue to allow the guest to enable and manipulate
a VLAN filter table. This allows us to drop more packets the guest
doesn't want to see. We define a new VLAN class for the control
virtqueue with commands ADD and DEL with usage defined in virtio-net.h.

Create a filter table and allow the guest to populate it with the
MAC class control commands. We manage the size and usage of the
filter table including enabling promiscuous and all-multi modes
as necessary. The guest should therefore assume the table is
infinite. Eventually this might allow us to bind directly to a
hardware NIC and manipulate a physical MAC filter.
The specifics of the TABLE_SET command are documented in
virtio-net.h. Separate buffers in the same command are used
for unicaste and multicast addresses for priority and
sychronization. With this we can export the VIRTIO_NET_F_CTRL_RX
feature bit.

Add a new RX_MODE control virtqueue class with commands PROMISC and
ALLMULTI and usage documented in virtio-net.h allowing the guest to
manipulate packet receiving options. We don't export a feature for
this until we also add the MAC filter table.
Note, for compatibility with older guest drivers we need to default
to promiscuous.

This will be used for RX mode, MAC table, VLAN table control, etc...
The control transaction consists of one or more "out" sg entries and
one or more "in" sg entries. The first out entry contains a header
defining the class and command. Additional out entries may provide
data for the command. A response via the ack entry is required
and the guest will typically be waiting for it.

This adds virtio-net support. This is based on the virtio-net driver
that exists in kvm-userspace. This also adds a new qemu_sendv_packet
which virtio-net requires.
