This PR extracts virtio-net into libs/virtio and exts/virtio_net crates. Device drivers are now allowed to use only public APIs exposed through kernel_api. This change is the rudimental support for kernel extensions to make it easy to implement pluggable modules especially like device drivers.

Closes #71
