block: Add VFIO based NVMe driver
This is a new protocol driver that exclusively opens a host NVMe
controller through VFIO. It achieves better latency than linux-aio by
completely bypassing host kernel vfs/block layer.

randwrite-4k-1 30.7k 37.0k
randwrite-512k-1 1945 1980
(unit: IOPS)
The driver also integrates with the polling mechanism of iothread.
This patch is co-authored by Paolo and me.
