This patch implements the virtio network driver backend. In KVM, this driver
can achieve 1gbit tx/rx performance. More patches are required to improve the
network IO infrastructure to achieve better performance in QEMU.
Since v1, I've updated the patch based on the IOVector refactoring.

This patch implements a very naive virtio network device backend in QEMU.
Even with this simple implementation, it get's about 3x the throughput of
rtl8139. Of course, there's a whole lot of room for optimization to eliminate
the unnecessary copying and support more advanced features.
