During inter-host migration, waiting for disk requests to be drained
in the vhost-user backend can incur significant downtime.

This can be avoided if QEMU migrates the inflight region in
vhost-user-blk.
Thus, during the qemu migration, the vhost-user backend can cancel all
inflight requests and
then, after migration, they will be executed on another host.

In vhost_user_blk_stop() on incoming inter-host migration make
should_drain = true, so after GET_VRING_BASE message all in-flight
requests will be migrated to other vm
