vhost-user-scsi: Introduce vhost-user-scsi host device

This commit introduces a vhost-user device for SCSI. This is based
on the existing vhost-scsi implementation, but done over vhost-user
instead. It also uses a chardev to connect to the backend. Unlike
vhost-scsi (today), VMs using vhost-user-scsi can be live migrated.

To use it, start Qemu with a command line equivalent to:

qemu-system-x86_64 \
       -chardev socket,id=vus0,path=/tmp/vus.sock \
       -device vhost-user-scsi-pci,chardev=vus0,bus=pci.0,addr=...

A separate commit presents a sample application linked with libiscsi to
provide a backend for vhost-user-scsi.
