net: Allow network backends to advertise max TX queue size

This commit refactors how the maximum transmit queue size for
virtio-net devices is determined, making the mechanism more generic
and extensible.

Previously, virtio_net_max_tx_queue_size() contained hardcoded
checks for specific network backend types (vhost-user and
vhost-vdpa) to determine their supported maximum queue size. This
created direct dependencies and would require modifications for
every new backend that supports variable queue sizes.

To improve flexibility, a new max_tx_queue_size field is added
to the vhost_net structure. This allows each network backend
to advertise its supported maximum transmit queue size directly.

The virtio_net_max_tx_queue_size() function now retrieves the max
TX queue size from the vhost_net struct, if available and set.
Otherwise, it defaults to VIRTIO_NET_TX_QUEUE_DEFAULT_SIZE.
