Since commit 2566378d6d13bf4d28c7770bdbda5f7682594bbe, libvhost-user
no longer panics on disconnect (rc == 0), and instead silently ignores
an invalid VHOST_USER_NONE message.

Without extra work from the API user, this will simply busy-loop on
HUP events. The obvious thing to do is to exit(0) instead, while
additional or different work can be done by overriding
iface->process_msg().
