62a0e941b5 examples/vhost: fix uninitialized descriptor indexes
Fixing the below error by returning from the function early
when count == 0.

Issue flagged by GCC 7.1.1

uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
  rte_prefetch0(&vr->desc[desc_indexes[0]]);

ca059fa5e2 examples/vhost: demonstrate the new generic APIs
Now DPDK vhost lib has been generic enough, that it can be used to
implement any vhost-user drivers.

For example, this patch implements a very simple vhost-user net driver,
mainly for demonstrating how to use those generic vhost APIs.

And when the --builtin-net-driver option is used, the example virtio-net
driver code will be invoked, instead of the one provided from the vhost
library.
