Usually I try to keep these sorted, but I can always fix that sort of
thing up myself.

You can just write $VM here since it's a whole word on its own.

If we're not sending fds any more, I think we can just get rid of this,
and include network devices in the vm.create request.  (vhost_user_sock
will need to be changed to vhost_socket to match the Cloud Hypervisor
API.)

I'd prefer this was in run-vmm, since it's a bit surprising to stop in
the middle of constructing a Cloud Hypervisor API request to do service
management.

C_lib is now completely empty, so can be removed.
