Add new message to send multiple writes to server in a single message.
Prevents the outgoing queue from overflowing when a long latency
operation is followed by a series of posted writes.

Support an asynchronous send of a vfio-user socket message (no wait for
a reply) when the write is posted. This is only safe when no regions are
mappable by the VM. Add an option to explicitly disable this as well.

By default, the vfio-user subsystem will wait 5 seconds for a message
reply from the server. Add an option to allow this to be configurable.

Unlike most other messages, this is a server->client message, for when a
server wants to do "DMA"; this is slow, so normally the server has
memory directly mapped instead.

When the vfio-user container gets mapping updates, share them with the
vfio-user by sending a message; this can include the region fd, allowing
the server to directly mmap() the region as needed.
For performance, we only wait for the message responses when we're doing
with a series of updates via the listener_commit() callback.

Introduce the vfio-user "proxy": this is the client code responsible for
sending and receiving vfio-user messages across the control socket.
The new files hw/vfio-user/proxy.[ch] contain some basic plumbing for
managing the proxy; initialize the proxy during realization of the
VFIOUserPCIDevice instance.
