Yes I agree, vsock+cid+port will be enough for most users and we can add
more if requested. I added Unix sockets since it is the default in
libvirt, but vsock should always be easy to setup. 'unix-tight' and
'unix-abstract' was added to match the QEMU schema, doubt that they are
needed in many cases.

Do you want a v4 with only vsock and the below style nits addressed?
