Geoffrey McRae 6a6e53f728 [client] removed the dependency on the ivshmem-server
Since we do not use IRQs anymore we can use the ivshmem-plain device
which doesn't need the ivshmem-server. The QEMU arguments now should be
as follows:

-device ivshmem-plain,memdev=ivshmem
-object memory-backend-file,id=ivshmem,share=on,mem-path=/dev/shm/looking-glass,size=32M

Obviously adjusting the memory size as required. It is suggested that
the shared memory file be created before the guest is started with the
appropriate permissions, for example:

touch /dev/shm/looking-glass
chown user:kvm /dev/shm/looking-glass
chmod 660 /dev/shm/looking-glass
