Support individual region unmap in libvhost-user

When the VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_CONFIGURE_MEM_SLOTS protocol feature is
enabled, on memory hot-unplug qemu will transmit memory regions to
remove individually using the new message VHOST_USER_REM_MEM_REG
message. With this change, vhost-user backends build with libvhost-user
can now unmap individual memory regions when receiving the
VHOST_USER_REM_MEM_REG message.

Qemu only sends VHOST_USER_REM_MEM_REG messages when the
VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_CONFIGURE_MEM_SLOTS feature is negotiated, and
support for that feature has not yet been added in libvhost-user, this
new functionality is not yet used.
