net: reduce the unnecessary memory allocation of multiqueue

Edivaldo reports a problem that the array of NetClientState in NICState is too
large - MAX_QUEUE_NUM(1024) which will wastes memory even if multiqueue is not
used.

Instead of static arrays, solving this issue by allocating the queues on demand
for both the NetClientState array in NICState and VirtIONetQueue array in
VirtIONet.

Tested by myself, with single virtio-net-pci device. The memory allocation is
almost the same as when multiqueue is not merged.

net: multiqueue support

This patch adds basic multiqueue support for qemu. The idea is simple, an array
of NetClientStates were introduced in NICState, parse_netdev() were extended to
find and match all NetClientStates belongs to the backend and place their
pointers in NICConf. Then qemu_new_nic can setup a N:N mapping between NICStates
that belongs to a nic and NICStates belongs to the netdev. And a queue_index
were introduced in NetClientState to track its index. After this, each peers of
a NICState were abstracted as a queue.

After this change, all NetClientState that belongs to the same backend/nic has
the same id. When use want to change the link status, all NetClientStates that
belongs to the same backend/nic will be also changed. When user want to delete
a device or netdev, all NetClientStates that belongs to the same backend/nic
will be deleted also. Changing or deleting an specific queue is not allowed.
