From: "Michael S. Tsirkin" <mst@redhat.com>

Support a separate bitmask for vhost-user protocol features,
and messages to get/set protocol features.

Invoke them at init.

No features are defined yet.

VHOST_USER_GET_PROTOCOL_FEATURES does not have an equivalent ioctl

Maybe protocol_features assignment should be outside the if clause.
(assigned to 0 in both cases)

The above comments can be addressed on top of this series because
does not affect the correctness of the patch.
