Good catch, we indeed don't want to send a Vhost-user request if it is
not supported by the Vhost-user backend.

The Vhost-user specification says:
"
Masters must not rely on the ``VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_MQ`` protocol
feature for
devices with a fixed number of virtqueues.  Only true multiqueue devices
require this protocol feature.
"

Virtio-net device being a true multiqueue device it should require this.
But for now Virtio-user PMD does not use VHOST_USER_GET_QUEUE_NUM, so
it might not be mandatory.

I can drop it for now, but we should consider adding support for sending
VHOST_USER_GET_QUEUE_NUM, as the container may want to know how many
queues are supported by the Vhost-user backend or the vDPA device.

Thanks!
