This field is mostly unused and sometimes confusing (we even have
a TODO-like comment to drop it). Let's finally do.
The field is used to held VHOST_USER_F_PROTOCOL_FEATURES for vhost-user
and/or VHOST_NET_F_VIRTIO_NET_HDR for vhost-net (which may be
vhost-user-net). But we can simply recalculate these two flags in place
from hdev->features, and from net-client for VHOST_NET_F_VIRTIO_NET_HDR.
Note: removing field from x-query-virtio-status result is incompatible
change. We can do it because the command is unstable.

Why do you think this change deserves qemu-stable? Does it fix a bug or
is it just a clean-up?
Thanks,
