This series implements the conventions for vhost-user backend programs described in vhost-user.rst: 1. Run in the foreground by default. 2. Show vhost-user.json capabilities when --print-capabilities is given. 3. Ship a vhost-user.json file so the program can be discovered.
No command-line options or VHostUserBackendCapabilities are defined for the 'fs' backend type yet. Let's until it becomes clear what should be standard for all 'fs' backends and what is specific to virtiofsd.
