Sebastian Eydam 53a00c0514 virtio-devices: net: add guest-announce plumbing
Advertise `VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_ANNOUNCE` on virtio-net devices, surface
`VIRTIO_NET_S_ANNOUNCE` through config status, and handle
`VIRTIO_NET_CTRL_ANNOUNCE_ACK` on the control queue.

This adds the guest-visible state needed for post-migration or
post-restore announce requests; the VMM side triggering is added in
follow-up commits.

The motivation is to reduce post-migration and post-restore
connectivity gap. After a live migration or after restoring, it can
take the guest several seconds to be reachable again over the network.
With these announcements, the network path should be refreshed within a
few milliseconds.
