Support adding individual regions in libvhost-user

When the VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_CONFIGURE_MEM_SLOTS is enabled, qemu will
transmit memory regions to a backend individually using the new message
VHOST_USER_ADD_MEM_REG. With this change vhost-user backends built with
libvhost-user can now map in new memory regions when VHOST_USER_ADD_MEM_REG
messages are received.

Qemu only sends VHOST_USER_ADD_MEM_REG messages when the
VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_CONFIGURE_MEM_SLOTS feature is negotiated, and
since it is not yet supported in libvhost-user, this new functionality
is not yet used.
