vhost: refine vhost and vringh kconfig
Currently, CONFIG_VHOST depends on CONFIG_VIRTUALIZATION. But vhost is not necessarily for VM since it's a generic userspace and kernel communication protocol. Such dependency may prevent archs without virtualization support from using vhost. To solve this, a dedicated vhost menu is created under drivers so CONIFG_VHOST can be decoupled out of CONFIG_VIRTUALIZATION. While at it, also squash Kconfig.vringh into vhost Kconfig file. This avoids the trick of conditional inclusion from VOP or CAIF. Then it will be easier to introduce new vringh users and common dependency for both vringh and vhost.
