Add a machine model to spawn a Nitro Enclave. Unlike the existing -M
nitro-enclave, this machine model works exclusively with the -accel
nitro accelerator to drive real Nitro Enclave creation. It supports
memory allocation, number of CPU selection, both x86_64 as well as
aarch64, implements the Enclave heartbeat logic and debug serial
console.
To use it, create an EIF file and run
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -accel nitro,debug-mode=on -M nitro -nographic \
-kernel test.eif
or
$ qemu-system-aarch64 -accel nitro,debug-mode=on -M nitro -nographic \
-kernel test.eif

Nitro Enclaves expect the parent instance to host a vsock heartbeat listener
at port 9000. To host a Nitro Enclave with the nitro accel in QEMU, add
such a heartbeat listener as device model, so that the machine can
easily instantiate it.

Nitro Enclaves support a special "debug" mode. When in debug mode, the
Nitro Hypervisor provides a vsock port that the parent can connect to to
receive serial console output of the Enclave. Add a new nitro-serial-vsock
driver that implements short-circuit logic to establish the vsock
connection to that port and feed its data into a chardev, so that a machine
model can use it as serial device.

Add a dedicated bus for Nitro Enclave vsock devices. In Nitro Enclaves,
communication between parent and enclave/hypervisor happens almost
exclusively through vsock. The nitro-vsock-bus models this dependency
in QEMU, which allows devices in this bus to implement individual services
on top of vsock.
The nitro machine spawns this bus by creating the included
nitro-vsock-bridge sysbus device.
The nitro accel then advertises the Enclave's CID to the bus by calling
nitro_vsock_bridge_start_enclave() on the bridge device as soon as it
knows the CID.
Nitro vsock devices can listen to that event and learn the Enclave's CID
when it is available to perform actions, such as connect to the debug
serial vsock port.
