[PATCH v12 08/10] test: Add tests for passt in vhost-user mode

[Laurent Vivier <lvivier@redhat.com>]

From: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>

Run functional and performance tests for vhost-user mode as well. For
functional tests, we add passt_vu and passt_vu_in_ns as symbolic links
to their non-vhost-user counterparts, as no differences are intended
but we want to distinguish them in test logs.

For performance tests, instead, we add separate perf/passt_vu_tcp and
perf/passt_vu_udp files, as we need longer test duration, as well as
higher UDP sending bandwidths and larger TCP windows, to actually get
the highest throughput vhost-user mode offers.

For valgrind tests, vhost-user mode needs two extra system calls:
statx and readlink. Add them as EXTRA_SYSCALLS for the valgrind
target.
