[RFC v3 07/10] vhost: add net status feature to VDUSE

[Eugenio Pérez]

From: Maxime Coquelin <maxime.coquelin at redhat.com>

Enable the VIRTIO_NET_F_STATUS feature for VDUSE devices.
This allows the device to report link status (e.g.,
VIRTIO_NET_S_LINK_UP). It also allows the device to signal the driver
that it needs to send gratuitous ARP with VIRTIO_NET_S_ANNOUNCE.

v2:
* Move the start and last declarations in the braces as gcc 8 does not
  like them interleaved with statements. Actually, I think the move was
  a mistake in the first version.
