VirtIO can use various different buses and virtio devices are
commonly implemented as PCI devices. But virtual environments
without PCI support (a common situation in embedded devices
models) might use simple memory mapped device (“virtio-mmio”)
instead of the PCI device.
This adds a transport driver that implements UCLASS_VIRTIO for
virtio over mmio.

This adds a new virtio uclass driver for “virtio” [1] family of
devices that are are found in virtual environments like QEMU,
yet by design they look like physical devices to the guest.
The uclass driver provides child_pre_probe() and child_post_probe()
methods to do some common operations for virtio device drivers like
device and driver supported feature negotiation, etc.
