Allow a vIOMMU object to allocate vIRQ Event Queues, with a condition that

I suggest you should tend to use the eventq as the primary naming not
vIRQ, I think that will be a bit clearer.

The virq in the VM is edge triggered by an event queue FD becoming
readable, but the event queue is the file descriptor that reports a
batch of events on read().

The virq name evokes similarities to the virq in vfio which is purely
about conveying if an IRQ edge has happened through an eventfd and has
no event queue associated with it.
