[RFC v2 09/15] vfio/cxl: introduce vfio_cxl_core_{read, write}()

From: Zhi Wang <zhiw@nvidia.com>

The read/write callbacks in vfio_device_ops is for accessing the device
when mmap is not support. It is also used for VFIO variant driver to
emulate the device registers.

CXL spec illusrates the standard programming interface, part of them
are MMIO registers sit in a PCI BAR. Some of them are emulated when
passing the CXL type-2 device to the VM. E.g. HDM decoder registers are
emulated.

Introduce vfio_cxl_core_{read, write}() in the vfio-cxl-core to prepare
for emulating the CXL MMIO registers in the PCI BAR.
