vfio/pci: Use bitfield for struct vfio_pci_core_device flags

struct vfio_pci_core_device contains eleven boolean flags.
Boolean flags clearly indicate their usage but space usage
starts to be a concern when there are many.

An upcoming change adds another boolean flag to
struct vfio_pci_core_device, thereby increasing the concern
that the boolean flags are consuming unnecessary space.

Transition the boolean flags to use bitfields. On a system that
uses one byte per boolean this reduces the space consumed
by existing flags from 11 bytes to 2 bytes with room for
a few more flags without increasing the structure's size.
