In rte_vhost_driver_register(), vhost unix domain socket listener fd is created
and added to polled(based on select) fdset.
In rte_vhost_driver_session_start(), fds in the fdset are checked for
processing. If there is new connection from qemu, connection fd accepted is
added to polled fdset. The listener and connection fds in the fdset are
then both checked. When there is message on the connection fd, its
callback vserver_message_handler is called to process vhost-user messages.
To support identifying which virtio is from which guest VM, we could call
rte_vhost_driver_register with different socket path. Virtio devices from
same VM will connect to VM specific socket. The socket path information is
stored in the virtio_net structure.

remove set_memory_table ops
vhost-cuse or vhost-user will both implement their own set_memory_region handler.
In current vhost-cuse implementation, guest numa memory isn't supported.
Assume that guest memory is backed by only one file.

Create vhost_cuse directory and move vhost-net-cdev.c into vhost_cuse.
vhost-cuse driver will be divided into two parts: cuse driver specific message
handling(in cuse directory) and common message handling(in virtio-net.c).
vhost ioctl message is pre-processed in cuse and then sent to virtio-net
if is not terminated.
virtio-net.c provides common message handling for both vhost-cuse and vhost-user.

To differentiate libraries that break ABI, we add a library version number
suffix to the library, which must be incremented when a given libraries ABI is
broken. This patch enforces that addition, sets the initial abi soname
extension to 1 for each library and creates a symlink to the base SONAME so that
the test applications will link properly.
