This patch introduces vhost_iova_to_vva() function to translate
guest's IO virtual addresses to backend's virtual addresses.

When IOMMU is enabled, the IOTLB cache is queried to get the
translation. If missing from the IOTLB cache, an IOTLB_MISS request
is sent to Qemu, and IOTLB cache is queried again on IOTLB event
notification.

When IOMMU is disabled, the passed address is a guest's physical
address, so the legacy rte_vhost_gpa_to_vva() API is used.
