[RFC PATCH V3] virtio_pci: Add SR-IOV support

Hardware-realized virtio-pci devices can implement SR-IOV, so this patch enables its use. The device in question is an upcoming Intel NIC that implements both a virtio-net PF and virtio-net VFs. These are hardware realizations of what has been up to now been a software interface. The device in
