When VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_CONFIGURE_MEM_SLOTS support was added to
libvhost-user, no guardrails were added to protect against QEMU
attempting to hot-add too many RAM slots to a VM with a libvhost-user
based backed attached.
This change adds the missing error handling by introducing a check on
the number of RAM slots the device has available before proceeding to
process the VHOST_USER_ADD_MEM_REG message.
