Virtio video encoder/decoder device provides a stateful API for video
encoding and decoding.

IDs 30 and 31 are already reserved for devices providing only one of
the two functions. There are use-cases for a device providing both
functions, so a new ID is reserved after a discussion on the ML ([1]).
