Below should be useful for some experiments Jason is doing.
I thought I'd send it out for early review/feedback.

Compiled-only at this point.

event idx feature allows us to defer interrupts until
a specific # of descriptors were used.
Sometimes it might be useful to get an interrupt after
a specific descriptor, regardless.
This adds a descriptor flag for this, and an API
to create an urgent output descriptor.
This is still an RFC:
we'll need a feature bit for drivers to detect this,
but we've run out of feature bits for virtio 0.X.
For experimentation purposes, drivers can assume
this is set, or add a driver-specific feature bit.
