Allow the number of queues to be configured using --export vhost-user-blk,num-queues=N. This setting should match the QEMU --device vhost-user-blk-pci,num-queues=N setting but QEMU vhost-user-blk.c lowers its own value if the vhost-user-blk backend offers fewer queues than QEMU. The vhost-user-blk-server.c code is already capable of multi-queue. All virtqueue processing runs in the same AioContext. No new locking is needed. Add the num-queues=N option and set the VIRTIO_BLK_F_MQ feature bit. Note that the feature bit only announces the presence of the num_queues configuration space field. It does not promise that there is more than 1 virtqueue, so we can set it unconditionally. I tested multi-queue by running a random read fio test with numjobs=4 on an -smp 4 guest. After the benchmark finished the guest /proc/interrupts file showed activity on all 4 virtio-blk MSI-X. The /sys/block/vda/mq/ directory shows that Linux blk-mq has 4 queues configured. An automated test is included in the next commit.
