VIRTIO_DEVICE_PROTOCOL.ReadDevice() / VIRTIO_DEVICE_PROTOCOL.WriteDevice().

This change replaces the accesses to the PCI bus from the Block, Scsi and Net drivers by
the use of the new VIRTIO_DEVICE_PROTOCOL protocol that abstracts the transport layer.
It means these drivers can be used on PCI and MMIO transport layer.

v5:
- VirtioFlush(): update comment block in VirtioLib.[hc]; error code is
propagated from VirtIo->SetQueueNotify().
- VirtioBlkInit(): jump to Failed label if SetPageSize() fails
- VirtioBlkInit(): fixup comment, and add error handling, near
SetQueueNum() call
- VirtioBlkDriverBindingStart(): remove redundant (always false) check for
a subsystem device ID different from VIRTIO_SUBSYSTEM_BLOCK_DEVICE;
VirtioBlkDriverBindingSupported() handles it already
- VirtioNetGetFeatures(): update stale comment block
- VirtioNetGetFeatures(): retrieve MAC address byte for byte (open-coded
loop)
- VirtioNetDriverBindingStart(): remove redundant (always false) check for
a subsystem device ID different from VIRTIO_SUBSYSTEM_NETWORK_CARD;
VirtioNetDriverBindingSupported() handles it already
- VirtioNetInitRing(): call SetQueueNum() and SetQueueAlign() for proper
MMIO operation
- VirtioNetInitialize(): fix destination error label for when
SetPageSize() fails
- VirtioScsi.c: fix comment block of VIRTIO_CFG_WRITE()/VIRTIO_CFG_READ()
- VirtioScsiInit(): fix destination error label for when SetPageSize()
fails
- VirtioScsiInit(): call SetQueueNum() and SetQueueAlign() for proper MMIO
operation

Enforce in-order execution of these steps even on not sequentially
consistent architectures, as discussed in [1]. These changes should be
unnecessary on x86 (the only architecture OVMF currently supports), but
they align the OVMF virtio code with the virtio specification and could be
necessary for future OVMF ports.

The descriptor table (also known as "queue") consists of descriptors. (The
corresponding type in the code is VRING_DESC.)
An individual descriptor describes a contiguous buffer, to be transferred
uni-directionally between host and guest.
Several descriptors in the descriptor table can be linked into a
descriptor chain, specifying a bi-directional scatter-gather transfer
between host and guest. Such a descriptor chain is also known as "virtio
request".
(The descriptor table can host sereval descriptor chains (in-flight virtio
requests) in parallel, but the OVMF driver supports at most one chain, at
any point in time.)
The first descriptor in any descriptor chain is called "head descriptor".
In order to submit a number of parallel requests (= a set of independent
descriptor chains) from the guest to the host, the guest must put *only*
the head descriptor of each separate chain onto the Available Ring.
VirtioLib currently places the head of its one descriptor chain onto the
Available Ring repeatedly, once for each single (head *or* dependent)
descriptor in said descriptor chain. If the descriptor chain comprises N
descriptors, this error amounts to submitting the same entire chain N
times in parallel.
Available Ring Descriptor table
Ptr to head ----> Desc#0 (head of chain)
Ptr to head --/ Desc#1 (next in same chain)
... / ...
Ptr to head / Desc#(N-1) (last in same chain)
Anatomy of a single virtio-blk READ request (a descriptor chain with three
descriptors):
virtio-blk request header, prepared by guest:
VirtioAppendDesc PhysAddr=3FBC6050 Size=16 Flags=1 Head=1232 Next=1232
payload to be filled in by host:
VirtioAppendDesc PhysAddr=3B934C00 Size=32768 Flags=3 Head=1232 Next=1233
host status, to be filled in by host:
VirtioAppendDesc PhysAddr=3FBC604F Size=1 Flags=2 Head=1232 Next=1234
Processing on the host side -- the descriptor chain is processed three
times in parallel (its head is available to virtqueue_pop() thrice); the
same chain is submitted/collected separately to/from AIO three times:
virtio_queue_notify vdev VDEV vq VQ#0

On my Thinkpad T510 laptop with RHEL-6 as host, this probably leads to
simultaneous DMA transfers targeting the same RAM area. Even though the
source of each transfer is identical, the data is corrupted in the
destination buffer -- the CRC32 calculated over the buffer varies, even
though the origin of the transfers is the same, never rewritten LBA.
SynchronousRequest Lba=585792 BufSiz=32768 ReqIsWrite=0 Crc32=BF68A44D
The problem is invisible on my HP Z400 workstation.
Fix the request submission by:
- building the only one descriptor chain supported by VirtioLib always at
the beginning of the descriptor table,
- ensuring the head descriptor of this chain is put on the Available Ring
only once,
- requesting the virtio spec's language to be cleaned up
