virtio: use unsigned int for virtqueue_get_avail_bytes() index

The virtio code uses int, unsigned int, and uint16_t for virtqueue
indices.  The uint16_t is used for the low-level descriptor layout in
virtio_ring.h while code that isn't concerned with descriptor layout can
use unsigned int.

Use of int is problematic because it can result in signed/unsigned
comparison and incompatible int*/unsigned int* pointer types.

Make the virtqueue_get_avail_bytes() 'i' variable unsigned int.  This
eliminates the need to introduce casts and modify code further in the
patches that follow.
