hw/9pfs: add response_buffer_size transport callback
Add a new callback to the V9fsTransport interface that allows each transport
to provide the real size of its current response buffer.
This is needed for subsequent safety guards that will limit generated
responses appropriately before trying to allocate, generate, and send a
response to guest.
This is especially required for request handlers that need to allocate
dynamic and potentially large host memory for generating a response. These
safety guards are mandatory to counter bad clients that try to trick server
by supplying response buffers being smaller than the previously negotiated
msize value.
