[RFC v6 09/16] VFIO: add vfio_external_{mask|is_active|set_automasked}

[Eric Auger]

Introduces 3 new external functions aimed at doing actions
on VFIO devices:
- mask VFIO IRQ
- get the active status of VFIO IRQ (active at interrupt
  controller level or masked by the level-sensitive automasking).
- change the automasked property and switch the IRQ handler
  (between automasked/ non automasked)

Their implementation is based on bus specific callbacks.

Note there is no way to discriminate between user-space
masking and automasked handler masking. As a consequence, is_active
will return true in case the IRQ was masked by the user-space.

Signed-off-by: Eric Auger <eric.auger@xxxxxxxxxx>

v5 -> v6:
- implementation now uses external ops
- prototype changed (index, start, count) and returns int

V4: creation
