To prepare for the implementation of '-net passt', this patch moves
the generic stream handling functions from net/stream.c into new
net/stream_data.c and net/stream_data.h files.
This refactoring introduces a NetStreamData struct that encapsulates
the generic fields and logic previously in NetStreamState. The
NetStreamState now embeds NetStreamData and delegates the core
stream operations to the new generic functions.
To maintain flexibility for different users of this generic code,
callbacks for send and listen operations are now passed via
function pointers within the NetStreamData struct. This allows
callers to provide their own specific implementations while reusing
the common connection and data transfer logic.

The code to set the link status is currently located in
qmp_set_link(). This function identifies the device by name,
searches for the corresponding NetClientState, and then updates
the link status.
In some parts of the code, such as vhost-user.c, the
NetClientState are already available. Calling qmp_set_link()
from these locations leads to a redundant search for the clients.
This patch refactors the logic by introducing a new function,
net_client_set_link(), which accepts a NetClientState array
directly. qmp_set_link() is simplified to be a wrapper that
performs the client search and then calls the new function.
The vhost-user implementation is updated to use net_client_set_link()
directly, thereby eliminating the unnecessary client lookup.

Currently, several parts of the codebase check if a network client is a
vhost-user backend by directly comparing its type against the
NET_CLIENT_DRIVER_VHOST_USER enum. This creates a tight coupling
between virtio/vhost-net drivers and the internal implementation
details of the vhost-user net client.
To improve abstraction and reduce this coupling, this patch introduces a
new helper function, qemu_is_vhost_user(). This function allows
callers to query if a client is of the vhost-user type without
needing to know about the specific enum value.
The mechanism uses a new is_vhost_user function pointer in the
NetClientInfo structure, which is implemented by the vhost-user
backend.
All existing direct checks are replaced with calls to the new helper.
This simplifies the logic in vhost_net.c and virtio-net.c,
making the code cleaner and more maintainable.

The get_vhost_net() function previously contained a large switch
statement to find the VHostNetState pointer based on the net
client's type. This created a tight coupling, requiring the generic
vhost layer to be aware of every specific backend that supported
vhost, such as tap, vhost-user, and vhost-vdpa.
This approach is not scalable and requires modifying a central function
for any new backend. It also forced each backend to expose its internal
getter function in a public header file.
This patch refactors the logic by introducing a new get_vhost_net
function pointer to the NetClientInfo struct. The central
get_vhost_net() function is now a simple, generic dispatcher that
invokes the callback provided by the net client.
Each backend now implements its own private getter and registers it in
its NetClientInfo.

This patch continues the effort to decouple the generic vhost layer
from specific network backend implementations.
Previously, the vhost_net initialization code contained a hardcoded
check for the vhost-user client type to retrieve its acked features
by calling vhost_user_get_acked_features(). This exposed an
internal vhost-user function in a public header and coupled the two
modules.
Following the pattern of recent commits, this patch introduces a
generic helper, qemu_get_acked_features(), and a corresponding
get_acked_features callback in the NetClientInfo struct.
The vhost-user backend is updated to provide this callback, and its
getter function is now static. The call site in vhost_net.c is
simplified to use the new generic helper, removing the type check and
the direct dependency.

This patch completes the series of refactorings aimed at decoupling the
generic vhost layer from specific network backends.
The final remaining dependency was in vhost_net_save_acked_features,
which contained a hardcoded check for the vhost-user client type.
This commit applies the now-established callback pattern, introducing a
save_acked_features function pointer to NetClientInfo and
converting the vhost_net function into a generic dispatcher.
The vhost-user backend provides the callback, making its function static.
With this change, no other module has a direct dependency on the
vhost-user implementation.
This cleanup allows for the complete removal of the net/vhost-user.h
header file.

This commit introduces support for passt as a new network backend.
passt is an unprivileged, user-mode networking solution that provides
connectivity for virtual machines by launching an external helper process.
The implementation reuses the generic stream data handling logic. It
launches the passt binary using GSubprocess, passing it a file
descriptor from a socketpair() for communication. QEMU connects to
the other end of the socket pair to establish the network data stream.
The PID of the passt daemon is tracked via a temporary file to
ensure it is terminated when QEMU exits.

This commit adds support for the vhost-user interface to the passt
network backend, enabling high-performance, accelerated networking for
guests using passt.
The passt backend can now operate in a vhost-user mode, where it
communicates with the guest's virtio-net device over a socket pair
using the vhost-user protocol. This offloads the datapath from the
main QEMU loop, significantly improving network performance.
The implementation involves:
- Extending NetPasstState to manage the vhost-user connection
state, including the chardev frontend and the vhost_net
instance.
- Adding the full vhost-user connection and event handling logic,
similar to the standalone net/vhost-user.c client.
- Populating the NetClientInfo structure with implementations for
all the required vhost callbacks that were recently refactored
(is_vhost_user, get_vhost_net, save_acked_features, etc).
When the vhost-user=on option is used with -netdev passt, the new
vhost initialization path is taken instead of the standard
stream-based connection.

For latency, we can use netperf -t TCP_RR.
For PPS, we can use pktgen, kernel source has samples under
samples/pktgen, pktgen_sample03_burst_single_flow.sh could be a good
script, please make sure burst is used in the test to stress the
virtio-net as much as possible.

Because of these code changes the virtio-net files, CI triggers
regression tests for it with virtio-net, everything works fine.
