[RFC 17/18] vfio/as: Allow the selection of a given iommu backend

[Yi Liu]

From: Eric Auger <eric.au...@redhat.com>

Now we support two types of iommu backends, let's add the capability
to select one of them. This is based on a VFIODevice auto/on/off
iommu_be field. This field is likely to be forced to a given value or
set by a device option.
