virtio 1.0 introduced a mechanism for the driver to verify that the feature bits it sets are accepted by the device. This mechanism consists in setting the VIRTIO_STATUS_FEATURE_OK status bit and re-reading it, whitch gives a chance for the device to clear it if the the features were not accepted.
This is currently being done only in modern virtio-pci devices but since the appropriate vhost-user messages have been added, it can also be done in virtio-user (vhost-user only). This patch activates this mechanism on virtio-user.
