Please split: add msg api; make spads optional.

Don't enforce "must have spad or msg" here, leave it to application to check spad_count != 0 or msg_count != 0 else fail. If an ntb doesn't have either, it may be rather limited, but let's not prevent the driver to register that device.

As written above has a subtle bug. We should say, if spad is implemented at all, then the basic spad api is fully implemented; likewise if msg is implemented at all, then the basic msg api is fully implemented.

As written below, the required basic api of spad ops must have the same truth-value of spad_count (and likewise for msg_count).
