[PATCH v4 1/8] input: virtio: poll from poller, not bthread

With the upcoming move of bthreads to be scheduled only in command
context, long running tasks (i.e. bareDOOM) may no longer process
VirtIO input in a timely manner. Move the input polling into a poller,
so input can once again be processed between frames.
