c0316a945a lguest: fix block request handling in example launcher.
virtio requests are scatter-gather-style descriptors, but no
assumptions should be made about the layout.  lguest was lazy here,
but saved by the fact that the network device hands all requests to
tun (which does it correctly) and console and random devices simply
use readv and writev.

Block devices, however, are broken: we convert to iovecs internally,
just make sure we handle the correctly.

ca16f580a5 lguest: fix occasional crash in example launcher.
We usually got away with ->next on the final entry being NULL, but it
finally bit me.

07fe9977b6 lguest: move the lguest tool to the tools directory
This is a better location instead of having it in Documentation.
