vDPA/ifcvf: implement shared IRQ feature



On some platforms/devices, there may not be enough MSI vectors
allocated for the virtqueues and config changes. In such a case,
the interrupt sources(virtqueues, config changes) must share
an IRQ/vector, to avoid initialization failures, keep
the device functional.

This commit handles three cases:
(1) number of the allocated vectors == the number of virtqueues + 1
(config changes), every virtqueue and the config interrupt has
a separated vector/IRQ, the best and the most likely case.
(2) number of the allocated vectors is less than the best case, but
greater than 1. In this case, all virtqueues share a vector/IRQ,
the config interrupt has a separated vector/IRQ
(3) only one vector is allocated, in this case, the virtqueues and
the config interrupt share a vector/IRQ. The worst and most
unlikely case.

Otherwise, it needs to fail.

This commit introduces some helper functions:
ifcvf_set_vq_vector() and ifcvf_set_config_vector() sets virtqueue
vector and config vector in the device config space, so that
the device can send interrupt DMA.
