Prior to this change, the vhost_user_fill_msg_region function filled out
all elements of the VhostUserMemoryRegion struct except the mmap_offset.

This function is often called on uninitialized structs, which are then
copied into VHOST_USER_SET_MEM_TABLE and VHOST_USER_ADD/REM_MEM_REG
messages. In some cases, where the mmap_offset was not needed, it was
left uninitialized, causing QEMU to send the backend uninitialized data,
which Coverity flagged as a series of issues.

This change augments the vhost_user_fill_msg_region API, adding a
mmap_offset paramenter, forcing the caller to initialize mmap_offset.

Fixes: CID-1429802, CID-1429803, CID-1429804
