In order to be able to send VHOST_USER_SLAVE_CONFIG_CHANGE_MSG request,
we need to negotiate the VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_CONFIG feature, and
ensure it is supported by the master. From the Vhost-user spec in Qemu:

"
``VHOST_USER_SLAVE_CONFIG_CHANGE_MSG``
  :id: 2
  :equivalent ioctl: N/A
  :slave payload: N/A
  :master payload: N/A

  When ``VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_CONFIG`` is negotiated, vhost-user
  slave sends such messages to notify that the virtio device's
  configuration space has changed, for those host devices which can
  support such feature, host driver can send ``VHOST_USER_GET_CONFIG``
  message to slave to get the latest content. If
  ``VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_REPLY_ACK`` is negotiated, and slave set the
  ``VHOST_USER_NEED_REPLY`` flag, master must respond with zero when
  operation is successfully completed, or non-zero otherwise.
"

Also, it is not clear in the spec that it should be sent on status
updates.

Finally, if we go and advertise we support VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_CONFIG,
we will have to support VHOST_USER_GET_CONFIG and VHOST_USER_SET_CONFIG
request handling in the backend.

I think it might be interesting to support it in the case of vDPA, but
full support needs to be added otherwise it will break.

Thanks,
Maxime
