hw/hw.h

hw/virtio/vhost-vsock.h -> hw/virtio/virtio.h -> hw/hw.h

Dropping vmstate.h from that file would have mean have to add one
hundred new includes or so.  And I didn't see any good reason for that.

My understanding is that all devices end including hw/hw.h one way or
another, so the only reason to add migration include files right now is:
- you use old registartion functions
- you use blockers
- you use migration notifiers

Otherwise, if you just use vmstate macros, they are there by hw/hw.h.

Later, Juan.
