Introduce Virtio-loopback epsilon release:
Epsilon release introduces a new compatibility layer which make virtio-loopback design to work with QEMU and rust-vmm vhost-user backend without require any changes. Signed-off-by: Timos Ampelikiotis <t.ampelikiotis@virtualopensystems.com> Change-Id: I52e57563e08a7d0bdc002f8e928ee61ba0c53dd9

+#
+# Features:

+# This allows the use of 'savevm' with

+# Returns: the output of the command as a string

+# Notes: This command only exists as a stop-gap. Its use is highly

+# guaranteed: this means that command names, arguments and
+# responses can change or be removed at ANY time. Applications
+# that rely on long term stability guarantees should NOT
+# use this command.
+#
+# Known limitations:
+#
+# * This command is stateless, this means that commands that depend
+# on state information (such as getfd) might not work
+#
+# * Commands that prompt the user for data don't currently work
