Summary
This change adds the VPCI device controller which can be used to assign/unassign virtual PCI devices to the UVM. The same then can be assigned to the containers running in the UVM.
Changes
The package exposes a controller that handles the full lifecycle of vPCI device assignments on a UVM. When a device is assigned, the controller issues a host-side HCS call to attach the physical PCI device to the VM. For Linux guests (LCOW), it additionally notifies the GCS so the guest can wait for the required device paths to become available before any workload uses them. For Windows guests (WCOW), no guest-side notification is needed. When a device is removed, the controller tears down the host-side assignment and cleans up all associated state.
