[PATCH v1 01/12] virtio-gpu api: multiple context types with explicit initialization

This feature allows for each virtio-gpu 3D context to be created
with a "context_init" variable.  This variable can specify:

 - the type of protocol used by the context via the capset id.
   This is useful for differentiating virgl, gfxstream, and venus
   protocols by host userspace.

 - other things in the future, such as the version of the context.

In addition, each different context needs one or more timelines, so
for example a virgl context's waiting can be independent on a
gfxstream context's waiting.

VIRTIO_GPU_FLAG_INFO_RING_IDX is introduced to specific to tell the
host which per-context command ring (or "hardware queue", distinct
from the virtio-queue) the fence should be associated with.

The new capability sets (gfxstream, venus etc.) are only defined in
the virtio-gpu spec and not defined in the header.
