sbus: Add sbus_vtable and update codegen to support it
Each interface is a vtable structure derived from sbus_vtable, in the sense that it has an sbus_vtable struct as its first argument. This lets us upcast the interface vtable structure to an sbus_vtable and dispatch to it dynamically and cleanly. The interface metadata contains information about which vtable offset in the interface metadata should be dispatched to for a given function. This is a common scheme, not only among dbus implementations, but also compiled languages. Currently all the vtable functions are of type sbus_msg_handler_fn. These are the handlers we are familiar with and perform raw processing of the message. Later commits will introduce type safe handlers that levelage compile checking and automatic argument packing/unpacking. Although this may seem contrived now, the remainder of the dbus infrastructure work will build on this, including ofd.Properties, ofd.ObjectManager, ofd.Introspect, compiler checked type safe unpacking/packing, etc. The codegen now generates vtable structures for each interface along-side the metadata, and fills in vtable offsets appropriately. It is obviously still possible to hand-craft such vtables and metadata if needed for a special case.
