An IOMMU driver that allocated a vIOMMU may want to revert the allocation,
if it encounters an internal error after the allocation. So, there needs a
destroy helper for drivers to use.

A brief explanation or a small code snippet illustrating a typical
allocation and potential abort scenario would be helpful.

Move iommufd_object_abort() to the driver.c file and the public header, to
introduce common iommufd_struct_destroy() helper that will abort all kinds
of driver structures, not confined to iommufd_viommu but also the new ones
being added in the future.
