The main reason that receives USO packets depends on the kernel, where
transmitting the feature that VirtIO implements.
Windows systems have the option to manipulate receive offload. That's
why there are two GUEST_USO features.
For HOST_USO - technically there is no point in "split" it, and there
is should not be any difference between IPv4/IPv6.
Technically, we either support transmitting big UDP packets or not.
