vfio: Whitelist PCI bridges

When determining whether a group is viable, we already allow devices
bound to pcieport.  Generalize this to include any PCI bridge device.

* Whitelist some drivers that we know are safe (no dma) or just sit on
* a device. It's not always practical to leave a device within a group
* driverless as it could get re-bound to something unsafe.
* Some drivers, like pci-stub, are only used to prevent other drivers from
* claiming a device and are therefore perfectly legitimate for a user owned
* group. The pci-stub driver has no dependencies on DMA or the IOVA mapping
* of the device, but it does prevent the user from having direct access to
* the device, which is useful in some circumstances.
*
* We also assume that we can include PCI interconnect devices, ie. bridges.
* IOMMU grouping on PCI necessitates that if we lack isolation on a bridge
* then all of the downstream devices will be part of the same IOMMU group as
* the bridge. Thus, if placing the bridge into the user owned IOVA space
* breaks anything, it only does so for user owned devices downstream. Note
* that error notification via MSI can be affected for platforms that handle
* MSI within the same IOVA space as DMA.
