vhost: enable vrings in vhost_dev_start() for vhost-user devices

Browse source 
Commit 02b61f38d3 ("hw/virtio: incorporate backend features in features")
properly negotiates VHOST_USER_F_PROTOCOL_FEATURES with the vhost-user
backend, but we forgot to enable vrings as specified in
docs/interop/vhost-user.rst:

    If ``VHOST_USER_F_PROTOCOL_FEATURES`` has not been negotiated, the
    ring starts directly in the enabled state.

    If ``VHOST_USER_F_PROTOCOL_FEATURES`` has been negotiated, the ring is
    initialized in a disabled state and is enabled by
    ``VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_ENABLE`` with parameter 1.

Some vhost-user front-ends already did this by calling
vhost_ops.vhost_set_vring_enable() directly:
- backends/cryptodev-vhost.c
- hw/net/virtio-net.c
- hw/virtio/vhost-user-gpio.c

But most didn't do that, so we would leave the vrings disabled and some
backends would not work. We observed this issue with the rust version of
virtiofsd [1], which uses the event loop [2] provided by the
vhost-user-backend crate where requests are not processed if vring is
not enabled.

Let's fix this issue by enabling the vrings in vhost_dev_start() for
vhost-user front-ends that don't already do this directly. Same thing
also in vhost_dev_stop() where we disable vrings.
