vhost-user: fix legacy cross-endian configurations
Currently, vhost-user does not implement any means for notifying the backend about guest endianess. This commit introduces a new message called VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_ENDIAN which is analogous to the ioctl() called VHOST_SET_VRING_ENDIAN used for kernel vhost backends. Such message is necessary for backends supporting legacy (pre-1.0) virtio devices running in big-endian guests.
