x86/sgx: Keep record of SGX page type



SGX2 functions are not allowed on all page types. For example,
ENCLS[EMODPR] is only allowed on regular SGX enclave pages and
ENCLS[EMODPT] is only allowed on TCS and regular pages. If these
functions are attempted on another type of page the hardware would
trigger a fault.

Keep a record of the SGX page type so that there is more
certainty whether an SGX2 instruction can succeed and faults
can be treated as real failures.

The page type is a property of struct sgx_encl_page
and thus does not cover the VA page type. VA pages are maintained
in separate structures and their type can be determined in
a different way. The SGX2 instructions needing the page type do not
operate on VA pages and this is thus not a scenario needing to
be covered at this time.

struct sgx_encl_page hosting this information is maintained for each
enclave page so the space consumed by the struct is important.
The existing sgx_encl_page->vm_max_prot_bits is already unsigned long
while only using three bits. Transition to a bitfield for the two
members to support the additional information without increasing
the space consumed by the struct.
