Multiple people need to build off of this work so in the interest of progress I am going to merge the rough, but functional, implementation. virtIO MMIO seems fairly solid but the console device needs more work as discussed in #27. |

This is an example showing off the virtIO support of libvmm. It currently only shows off the virtIO console device, with more devices such as block and graphics to be added later.

Adds the initial implementation of virtIO MMIO (done by @abrandnewusername) and adds the virtIO console device.
This also adds an example that aims to show off all the virtIO devices that libvmm provides. In this case, it is just virtIO console where multiple guests have a CLI that uses the virtIO console device. libvmm then talks to sDDF to do actual serial TX and RX to the hardware.
This is in a working state, but more is to be done in order to clean it up and make it ready for merging.
