virtio-scsi: add iothread-vq-mapping parameter
Allow virtio-scsi virtqueues to be assigned to different IOThreads. This
makes it possible to take advantage of host multi-queue block layer
scalability by assigning virtqueues that have affinity with vCPUs to
different IOThreads that have affinity with host CPUs. The same feature
was introduced for virtio-blk in the past:

Here are fio randread 4k iodepth=64 results from a 4 vCPU guest with an
Intel P4800X SSD:
