vhost: fix header for strict compilation flags

Exported headers must allow compilation with the strictest flags. This
commit addresses the following errors:

 In file included from /tmp/check-includes.sh.20132.c:1:0:
 build/include/rte_vhost.h:73:30: error: ISO C forbids zero-size array
    'regions' [-Werror=pedantic]
 [...]

Also:

- Add C++ awareness to rte_vhost.h for consistency with rte_eth_vhost.h.
- Move Linux includes into C++ block to prevent linking issues with
  exported symbols.
- Update check-includes.sh following the removal of rte_virtio_net.h.

Finally, update check-includes.sh to ignore rte_vhost.h and rte_eth_vhost.h
from now on since the Linux headers they depend on are not clean enough:

 In file included from /usr/include/linux/vhost.h:17:0,
                  from build/include/rte_vhost.h:43,
                  from build/include/rte_eth_vhost.h:44,
                  from /tmp/check-includes.sh.20132.c:1:
 /usr/include/linux/virtio_ring.h: In function 'vring_init':
 /usr/include/linux/virtio_ring.h:146:16: error: pointer of type 'void *'
    used in arithmetic [-Werror=pointer-arith]
 [...]
 In file included from build/include/rte_vhost.h:43:0,
                  from build/include/rte_eth_vhost.h:44,
                  from /tmp/check-includes.sh.20132.c:1:
 /usr/include/linux/vhost.h: At top level:
 /usr/include/linux/vhost.h:73:3: error: ISO C99 doesn't support unnamed
    structs/unions [-Werror=pedantic]
 [...]

Fixes: eb32247457fe ("vhost: export guest memory regions")
Fixes: a798beb47c8e ("vhost: rename header file")
