The goals of this series is to provide more flexibility to external
backends to implement their specific vhost-user request handling
without having to patch vhost-user library.

First patch implements a new API for external backend to advertize
its specific protocol features to vhost-user master.

Second patch ensures a request not handled by the vhost-user library
but by the external backend only will not be treated as an error or
make the vhost lib to crash.

Changes in v3:
==============
  - Fix and improve comments (Ilya)

Changes in v2:
==============
  - Remove 'skip_master' param from documentation (Ilya)
  - Merge pre and post callback in a single one (Ilya)

Changes in v1:
==============
  - Convert vhost-crypto to the API change (Ilya)
  - Fix build with recent GCC (fall-through)
  - Check request > VHOST_USER_NONE (Ilya)
  - Remove 'Requested invalid message type' check (Ilya)

Changes in RFC v2:
==================
  - Fix build & git message
  - Add new enum for not handled messages & remove skip_master (Ilya)

Maxime Coquelin (2):
   vhost: add API to set protocol features flags
   vhost: support requests only handled by external backend
