  1. vhost_user: ignore unknown features from backend

    virtiofsd 1.11.0 added support for VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_DEVICE_STATE.
    Upgrading virtiofsd meant that the latest released version of Cloud
    Hypervisor (39.0) was no longer able to communicate with it, because
    rather than just ignoring the unsupported feature, it got an
    unrecoverable "invalid message" error.  This demonstrates that it's
    better for frontends to just ignore offers of unsupported features.
    If the backend requires some feature, it'll get a chance to know that
    when we send VHOST_USER_SET_PROTOCOL_FEATURES anyway.
