Only signal MSI/MSI-X events on rising edges. So far we re-triggered the
interrupt sources even if the guest did no consumed the pending one,
easily causing interrupt storms.

Issue was observable with Linux 4.16 e1000e driver when MSI-X was used.
Vector 2 was causing interrupt storms after the driver activated the
device.
