vhost-user: Convert slave channel to QIOChannelSocket
The slave channel is implemented with socketpair() : QEMU creates
the pair, passes one of the socket to virtiofsd and monitors the
other one with the main event loop using qemu_set_fd_handler().
In order to fix a potential deadlock between QEMU and a vhost-user
external process (e.g. virtiofsd with DAX), we want to be able to
monitor and service the slave channel while handling vhost-user
requests.
Prepare ground for this by converting the slave channel to be a
QIOChannelSocket. This will make monitoring of the slave channel
as simple as calling qio_channel_add_watch_source(). Since the
connection is already established between the two sockets, only
incoming I/O (G_IO_IN) and disconnect (G_IO_HUP) need to be
serviced.
This also allows to get rid of the ancillary data parsing since
QIOChannelSocket can do this for us. Note that the MSG_CTRUNC
check is dropped on the way because QIOChannelSocket ignores this
case. This isn't a problem since slave_read() provisions space for
8 file descriptors, but affected vhost-user slave protocol messages
generally only convey one. If for some reason a buggy implementation
passes more file descriptors, no need to break the connection, just
like we don't break it if some other type of ancillary data is
received : this isn't explicitely violating the protocol per-se so
it seems better to ignore it.
The current code errors out on short reads and writes. Use the
qio_channel_*_all() variants to address this on the way.
