PATCH v3 1/1 doc: announce bus/vmbus API changes

From: Long Li <[email protected]>

All vmbus APIs are used internally by DPDK core and net/netvsc PMD. It's not feasible or practical to use those APIs by the application. Those APIs will become internal in DPDK 25.11.

Applied, thanks.

Could you work on this cleanup for 26.11?

Thanks.
