Add the ability to use vmxnet3 NIC on a host using the QEMU/KVM driver. Qemu supports the driver since version 1.5, and Libvirt can expose it properly. This allow the migration of an ESXi VM to QEMU/KVM, this without any driver changes. vmxnet3 comes with better performance, and lower latency comparing to an emulated driver like e1000.
