Rusty Russell 19f1537b7b Lguest support for Virtio
This makes lguest able to use the virtio devices.

We change the device descriptor page from a simple array to a variable
length "type, config_len, status, config data..." format, and
implement virtio_config_ops to read from that config data.

We use the virtio ring implementation for an efficient Guest <-> Host
virtqueue mechanism, and the new LHCALL_NOTIFY hypercall to kick the
host when it changes.

We also use LHCALL_NOTIFY on kernel addresses for very very early
console output.  We could have another hypercall, but this hack works
quite well.
