libvhost-user: Support across-memory-boundary access
The sg list/indirect descriptor table may be contigious in GPA but not in HVA address space. But libvhost-user wasn't aware of that. This would cause out-of-bounds access. Even a malicious guest could use it to get information from the vhost-user backend. Introduce a plen parameter in vu_gpa_to_va() so we can handle this case, returning the actual mapped length.
