Subject: [PATCH 3/5] virtio: Don't expose legacy net features when VIRTIO_NET_NO_LEGACY defined.

In particular, the virtio header always has the u16 num_buffers field.
We define a new 'struct virtio_net_modern_hdr' for this (rather than
simply calling it 'struct virtio_net_hdr', to avoid nasty type errors
if some parts of a project define VIRTIO_NET_NO_LEGACY and some don't.
