virtiofs: implement FUSE_INIT map_alignment field

Browse source 
The device communicates FUSE_SETUPMAPPING/FUSE_REMOVMAPPING alignment
constraints via the FUST_INIT map_alignment field.  Parse this field and
ensure our DAX mappings meet the alignment constraints.

We don't actually align anything differently since our mappings are
already 2MB aligned.  Just check the value when the connection is
established.  If it becomes necessary to honor arbitrary alignments in
the future we'll have to adjust how mappings are sized.

The upshot of this commit is that we can be confident that mappings will
work even when emulating x86 on Power and similar combinations where the
host page sizes are different.
