qdev: add IOThreadVirtQueueMappingList property type

virtio-blk and virtio-scsi devices will need a way to specify the
mapping between IOThreads and virtqueues. At the moment all virtqueues
are assigned to a single IOThread or the main loop. This single thread
can be a CPU bottleneck, so it is necessary to allow finer-grained
assignment to spread the load.

Introduce DEFINE_PROP_IOTHREAD_VQ_MAPPING_LIST() so devices can take a
parameter that maps virtqueues to IOThreads. The command-line syntax for
this new property is as follows:

  --device '{"driver":"foo","iothread-vq-mapping":[{"iothread":"iothread0","vqs":[0,1,2]},...]}'

IOThreads are specified by name and virtqueues are specified by 0-based
index.

It will be common to simply assign virtqueues round-robin across a set
of IOThreads. A convenient syntax that does not require specifying
individual virtqueue indices is available:

  --device '{"driver":"foo","iothread-vq-mapping":[{"iothread":"iothread0"},{"iothread":"iothread1"},...]}'
