  Currently, when the backend is vhost-net, which implies
virtio-user works in client mode, virtio-user is assigned
to the default feature VIRTIO_USER_SUPPORTED_FEATURES.
However, virtio-user should request features from the
backend in this case.

Server mode also needs to run below code when the
connection to the backend is established.

For server mode, the below code is called by virtio_user_start_device(),
instead of virtio_user_dev_init(). Only client mode virtio-user
needs to call it when init.

The server mode virtio-user is assigned the default features, which include
VIRTIO_NET_F_MAC. So checking if support VIRTIO_NET_F_MAC is only necessary
for client mode.

Okay. So in server mode, virtio-user never get a chance
to do GET_FEATURES.

I think we should set this bit only when mac is
specified. And in server mode, we need to clear
this bit when mac isn't specified. So instead
of moving it, it should be changed to something
like this:

	if (dev->mac_specified)
		dev->device_features |= (1ull << VIRTIO_NET_F_MAC);
	else
		dev->device_features &= ~(1ull << VIRTIO_NET_F_MAC);

In current design, virtio-user server mode always has no way to do GET_FEATURES.
I think it's the design problem of virtio-user server mode. This patch is just for solving
client mode virtio-user feature setting.
