If the VIRTIO_NET_F_HASH_REPORT feature is negotiated, the driver may
send VIRTIO_NET_CTRL_MQ_HASH_CONFIG commands, thus, the control VQ
feature should be negotiated.
---
v2: Use SHOULD instead of Feature bit requirement, version 1.2 is already
out and doesn't include this depencency.
v3: Explain the dependency in a less confusing way.
