backends/iommufd: Introduce the iommufd object
Introduce an iommufd object which allows the interaction
with the host /dev/iommu device.

The /dev/iommu can have been already pre-opened outside of qemu,
in which case the fd can be passed directly along with the
iommufd object:

This allows the iommufd object to be shared accross several
subsystems (VFIO, VDPA, ...). For example, libvirt would open
the /dev/iommu once.

If no fd is passed along with the iommufd object, the /dev/iommu
is opened by the qemu code.
