Subject: [RFC PATCH] vdpa: mandate 1.0 device

This patch mandates 1.0 for vDPA devices. The goal is to have the
semantic of normative statement in the virtio spec and eliminate the
burden of transitional device for both vDPA bus and vDPA parent.

uAPI seems fine since all the vDPA parent mandates
VIRTIO_F_ACCESS_PLATFORM which implies 1.0 devices.

For legacy guests, it can still work since Qemu will mediate when
necessary (e.g doing the endian conversion).
