libvhost-user: implement in-band notifications

Add support for VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_IN_BAND_NOTIFICATIONS, but
as it's not desired by default, don't enable it unless the device
implementation opts in by returning it from its protocol features
callback.

Note that I updated vu_set_vring_err_exec(), but didn't add any
sending of the VHOST_USER_SLAVE_VRING_ERR message as there's no
write to the err_fd today either.

This also adds vu_queue_notify_sync() which can be used to force
a synchronous notification if inband notifications are supported.
Previously, I had left out the slave->master direction handling
of F_REPLY_ACK, this now adds some code to support it as well.
