Add menuconfig options to include modules for (virtio) vsockets. These are used when running as Guest OS in a VM. OpenWRT can be run in a vm (mostly commonly on the x86/64 and armsr targets). Often it is convenient to have some sort of guest agent running, to ease communication from host to guest. Virtual Sockets provide this communication channel. Virtio is a transport for this communication channel. Virtual Sockets over virtio are for example used by Incus. Virtual Sockets in general are used by most hypervisors, including VMware, Hyper-V, and libvirt (qemu). These may need other transport-specific modules not included in this commit.
