This patch allows the driver to obtain some statistics from the device.

In the back-end implementation, we can count a lot of such information,
which can be used for debugging and judging the running status of the
back-end. We hope to directly display it to the user through ethtool.

v6:
1. correct the names and descriptions of some stats items

v5:
1. add VIRTIO_NET_CTRL_STATS_GET_CTRL_VQ
2. more item for virtio_net_ctrl_reply_stats_queue_pair

v4:
1. remove dev_stats_num, {rx|tx}_stats_num
2. Use two commands to get the stats of queue pair and dev respectively

v3 changes:
1. add dev_version
2. use queue_pair_index replace rx_num, tx_num
3. Explain the processing when the device and driver support different numbers
of stats

To be consistent I think we need comments for those two. E.g do we
count dropped packets/bytes there?

keywords like "MUST" should be used in the device normative or driver
normative part.

So I suggest moving the case where VIRTIO_NET_ERR to device normative.
And tweak the rest as guidance by not using "MUST" keywords.
