vhost-user: add multi queue support
Based on patch by Nikolay Nikolaev:
Vhost-user will implement the multi queue support in a similar way
to what vhost already has - a separate thread for each queue.
To enable the multi queue functionality - a new command line parameter
"queues" is introduced for the vhost-user netdev.
