net: Add is_vhost_user flag to vhost_net struct

Introduce a boolean is_vhost_user field to the vhost_net
structure. This flag is initialized during vhost_net_init based
on whether the backend is vhost-user.

This refactoring simplifies checks for vhost-user specific behavior,
replacing direct comparisons of 'net->nc->info->type' with the new
flag. It improves readability and encapsulates the backend type
information directly within the vhost_net instance.
