virtio: add num_vf callback to virtio_bus

Recent QEMU versions added support for virtio SR-IOV emulation,
allowing virtio devices to expose SR-IOV VFs to the guest.
However, virtio_bus does not implement the num_vf callback of bus_type,
causing dev_num_vf() to return 0 for virtio devices even when
SR-IOV VFs are active.

net/core/rtnetlink.c calls dev_num_vf(dev->dev.parent) to populate
IFLA_NUM_VF in RTM_GETLINK responses.  For a virtio-net device,
dev.parent points to the virtio_device, whose busis virtio_bus.
Without num_vf, SR-IOV VF information is silently
omitted from tools that rely on rtnetlink, such as 'ip link show'.

Add a num_vf callback that delegates to dev_num_vf(dev->parent),
which in turn reaches the underlying transport (pci_bus_type for
virtio-pci) where the actual VF count is tracked.  Non-PCI transports
are unaffected as dev_num_vf() returns 0 when no num_vf callback is
present.
