vhost-user: add a new message to disable/enable a specific virt queue.
Add a new message, VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_ENABLE, to enable or disable
a specific virt queue, which is similar to attach/detach queue for
tap device.
virtio driver on guest doesn't have to use max virt queue pair, it
could enable any number of virt queue ranging from 1 to max virt
queue pair.
