Yi and I had a last minute talk before he sent this version
actually... This version of hw_info no longer reports a list
of supported hwpt types. We previously did that in a bitmap,
but we found that a bitmap will not be sufficient eventually
if there are more than 64 hwpt_types.

And this domain_alloc_user_data_len might not be necessary,
because in this version the IOMMUFD core doesn't really care
about the actual data_len since it copies the data into the
ucmd_buffer, i.e. we would probably only need a bool op like
"hwpt_type_is_supported".
