virtio-blk-pci: default num_queues to -smp N

Automatically size the number of virtio-blk-pci request virtqueues to
match the number of vCPUs.  Other transports continue to default to 1
request virtqueue.

A 1:1 virtqueue:vCPU mapping ensures that completion interrupts are
handled on the same vCPU that submitted the request.  No IPI is
necessary to complete an I/O request and performance is improved.  The
maximum number of MSI-X vectors and virtqueues limit are respected.

Performance improves from 78k to 104k IOPS on a 32 vCPU guest with 101
virtio-blk-pci devices (ioengine=libaio, iodepth=1, bs=4k, rw=randread
with NVMe storage).
