Ruben Hakobyan 75ed2c9f90 vmm: add KVM SEV-SNP support to IGVM loader
Adapt the IGVM loader to work with both MSHV and KVM backends, which
differ in page type constants, CPUID page layout, and VMSA handling.

Abstract page types into a PageTypeConfig struct populated at runtime
from the detected hypervisor, replacing hardcoded mshv_bindings constants.

Apply the VMSA register state to each vCPU via setup_sev_snp_regs(),
translating SevSelector attributes to KVM segment format using a bitfield
decoder.

KVM's SNP launch path sanitizes certain CPUID bits that could lead to
an insecure guest. If the VMM sets these bits, KVM rejects the CPUID
page import on the first attempt, requiring a retry with the
firmware-corrected values.

Pre-clear the known problematic bits before import to avoid the
reject-and-retry cycle:

- Leaf 0x1, ECX bit 24: TSC_DEADLINE (filtered by KVM)
- Leaf 0x7, EBX bit 1: SGX (filtered by KVM)
- Leaf 0x7, EDX: clear entirely (contains speculative features)
- Leaf 0x80000008, EBX bit 25: filtered by KVM
- Leaf 0x80000021, ECX: clear entirely

This keeps the CPUID page stable across launch updates and avoids
noisy error logs from the retry path.
