    pci: Clarify SR-IOV ports vs direct passthrough ports

    This patch clarify for what type of ports
    detach/attach pci device is needed and for what type of
    port we just need pci request. To avoid confusion this
    patch introduce 2 type of ports list VNIC_TYPES_SRIOV
    and VNIC_TYPES_DIRECT_PASSTHROUGH. The VNIC_TYPES_SRIOV
    are ports which require pci request, while
    VNIC_TYPES_DIRECT_PASSTHROUGH ports require pci device
    attach/detach from libvirt dom. VNIC_TYPES_DIRECT_PASSTHROUGH
    is subset of VNIC_TYPES_SRIOV.
