kvm: x86: only provide PV features if enabled in guest's CPUID
KVM unconditionally provides PV features to the guest, regardless of the configured CPUID. An unwitting guest that doesn't check KVM_CPUID_FEATURES before use could access paravirt features that userspace did not intend to provide. Fix this by checking the guest's CPUID before performing any paravirtual operations. Introduce a capability, KVM_CAP_ENFORCE_PV_FEATURE_CPUID, to gate the aforementioned enforcement. Migrating a VM from a host w/o this patch to a host with this patch could silently change the ABI exposed to the guest, warranting that we default to the old behavior and opt-in for the new one.
