vhost-vdpa: allow passing opened vhostfd to vhost-vdpa
Similar to other vhost backends, vhostfd can be passed to vhost-vdpa backend as another parameter to instantiate vhost-vdpa net client. This would benefit the use case where only open file descriptors, as opposed to raw vhost-vdpa device paths, are accessible from the QEMU process.
