virtio: Introduce vringh wrappers in virtio_config
Add wrappers for the host vrings to support loose coupling between the virtio device and driver. A new struct vringh_config_ops with the functions find_vrhs() and del_vrhs() is added to the virtio_device struct. This enables virtio drivers to manage virtio host rings without detailed knowledge of how the vrings are created and deleted. The function vringh_notify() is added so vringh clients can notify the other side that buffers are added to the used-ring.
