Clean up some obsolete code in pci_virtio_net.c
Allow an error return from a PCI device emulation's init routine
to be propagated all the way back to the top-level and result in
the process exiting.

generate an interrupt when it runs out of available tx/rx descriptors.

This makes the receive path to only execute in context of the receive thread
and allows for further simplification.

by ~30-40% and doesn't harm req/resp time for stock netperf runs.
Future work will use a thread pool rather than a thread per tx queue.

command line option "-m <memsize in MB>" to specify the memory size.
Prior to this change the user needed to explicitly specify the amount of
memory allocated below 4G (-m <lowmem>) and the amount above 4G (-M <highmem>).
The "-M" option is no longer supported by 'bhyveload' and 'bhyve'.
The start of the PCI hole is fixed at 3GB and cannot be directly changed
using command line options. However it is still possible to change this in
special circumstances via the 'vm_set_lowmem_limit()' API provided by
libvmmapi.

This seems prudent to do in its own right but it also opens up the possibility
of not having to mmap the entire guest address space in the 'bhyve' process
context.

devices are MSI-X capable. This in turn would lead it to treat bar 0 as
the MSI-X table bar even if the underlying device did not support MSI-X.
Fix this by providing an API to query the MSI-X table index of the emulated
device. If the underlying device does not support MSI-X then this API will
return -1.

The current behavior of advertising a single MSI vector can be requested by
setting the environment variable "BHYVE_USE_MSI" to "true". The use of MSI
is not compliant with the virtio specification and will be eventually phased
out.
