vhost-user: add shared_object msg

Add three new vhost-user protocol
`VHOST_USER_BACKEND_SHARED_OBJECT_* messages`.
These new messages are sent from vhost-user
back-ends to interact with the virtio-dmabuf
table in order to add or remove themselves as
virtio exporters, or lookup for virtio dma-buf
shared objects.

The action taken in the front-end depends
on the type stored in the virtio shared
object hash table.

When the table holds a pointer to a vhost
backend for a given UUID, the front-end sends
a VHOST_USER_GET_SHARED_OBJECT to the
backend holding the shared object.

The messages can only be sent after successfully
negotiating a new VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_SHARED_OBJECT
vhost-user protocol feature bit.

Finally, refactor code to send response message so
that all common parts both for the common REPLY_ACK
case, and other data responses, can call it and
avoid code repetition.
