drm/i915/gt: Defer enabling the breadcrumb interrupt to after submission

Move the register slow register write and readback from out of the
critical path for execlists submission and delay it until the following
worker, shaving off around 200us. Note that the same signal_irq_work() is
allowed to run concurrently on each CPU (but it will only be queued once,
once running though it can be requeued and reexecuted) so we have to
remember to lock the global interactions as we cannot rely on the
signal_irq_work() itself providing the serialisation (in constrast to a
tasklet).

By pushing the arm/disarm into the central signaling worker we can close
the race for disarming the interrupt (and dropping its associated
GT wakeref) on parking the engine. If we loose the race, that GT wakeref
may be held indefinitely, preventing the machine from sleeping while
the GPU is ostensibly idle.

v2: Move the self-arming parking of the signal_irq_work to a flush of
the irq-work from intel_breadcrumbs_park().
