vhost: Distinguish errors in vhost_dev_get_config()

Instead of just returning 0/-1 and letting the caller make up a
meaningless error message, add an Error parameter to allow reporting the
real error and switch to 0/-errno so that different kind of errors can
be distinguished in the caller.

config_len in vhost_user_get_config() is defined by the device, so if
it's larger than VHOST_USER_MAX_CONFIG_SIZE, this is a programming
error. Turn the corresponding check into an assertion.
