Make vhost-user-blk backwards compatible when migrating from older VMs
running with modern features turned off, the same way it was done for
virtio-blk in 20764be0421c ("virtio-blk: set config size depending on the features enabled")
It's currently impossible to migrate from an older VM with
vhost-user-blk (with disable-legacy=off) because of errors like this:
qemu-system-x86_64: get_pci_config_device: Bad config data: i=0x10 read: 41 device: 1 cmask: ff wmask: 80 w1cmask:0
qemu-system-x86_64: Failed to load PCIDevice:config
qemu-system-x86_64: Failed to load virtio-blk:virtio
qemu-system-x86_64: error while loading state for instance 0x0 of device '0000:00:05.0:00.0:02.0/virtio-blk'
qemu-system-x86_64: load of migration failed: Invalid argument
This is caused by the newer (destination) VM requiring a bigger BAR0
alignment because it has to cover a bigger configuration space, which
isn't actually needed since those additional config fields are not
active (write-zeroes/discard).

Please drop the s->config_size field introduced in this patch and use
vdev->config_len instead. When the same value is stored in multiple
places it's hard to be sure each copy remains identical and bugs can
creep in.
For example, if vdev->config_len is used consistently then it's clear
that buffer overflows and information leaks are prevented by common
code:
uint32_t virtio_config_readb(VirtIODevice *vdev, uint32_t addr)
{
VirtioDeviceClass *k = VIRTIO_DEVICE_GET_CLASS(vdev);
uint8_t val;
if (addr + sizeof(val) > vdev->config_len) {
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
return (uint32_t)-1;
}
k->get_config(vdev, vdev->config);
It's safe because vdev->config is g_malloc0(vdev->config_len).
Buf if I see s->config_size, I don't really know whether it's safe and I
need to audit the code to be sure.
