vhost/vsock: add IOTLB API support

This patch enables the IOTLB API support for vhost-vsock devices,
allowing the userspace to emulate an IOMMU for the guest.

These changes were made following vhost-net, in details this patch:
- exposes VIRTIO_F_ACCESS_PLATFORM feature and inits the iotlb
  device if the feature is acked
- implements VHOST_GET_BACKEND_FEATURES and
  VHOST_SET_BACKEND_FEATURES ioctls
- calls vq_meta_prefetch() before vq processing to prefetch vq
  metadata address in IOTLB
- provides .read_iter, .write_iter, and .poll callbacks for the
  chardev; they are used by the userspace to exchange IOTLB messages

This patch was tested specifying "intel_iommu=strict" in the guest
kernel command line. I used QEMU with a patch applied [1] to fix a
simple issue (that patch was merged in QEMU v5.2.0):
    $ qemu -M q35,accel=kvm,kernel-irqchip=split \
           -drive file=fedora.qcow2,format=qcow2,if=virtio \
           -device intel-iommu,intremap=on,device-iotlb=on \
           -device vhost-vsock-pci,guest-cid=3,iommu_platform=on,ats=on
