Hi all:
We had generated fixes for plenty of coding style issues in the old vhost example code, 
and will re-generate the fixes for coding style issue once this patch is applied. This patch focuses
and only focuses on refactoring vhost example to a library. Any existing issue will be fixed in separate
patches, for example, like structure assignment rather than memcpy Stephen ever mentioned.

Appreciate your comments.

Best Regards
