KVM: arm64/sve: Context switch the SVE registers



In order to give each vcpu its own view of the SVE registers, this
patch adds context storage via a new sve_state pointer in struct
vcpu_arch.  An additional member sve_max_vl is also added for each
vcpu, to determine the maximum vector length visible to the guest
and thus the value to be configured in ZCR_EL2.LEN while the vcpu
is active.  This also determines the layout and size of the storage
in sve_state, which is read and written by the same backend
functions that are used for context-switching the SVE state for
host tasks.

On SVE-enabled vcpus, SVE access traps are now handled by switching
in the vcpu's SVE context and disabling the trap before returning
to the guest.  On other vcpus, the trap is not handled and an exit
back to the host occurs, where the handle_sve() fallback path
reflects an undefined instruction exception back to the guest,
consistently with the behaviour of non-SVE-capable hardware (as was
done unconditionally prior to this patch).

No SVE handling is added on non-VHE-only paths, since VHE is an
architectural and Kconfig prerequisite of SVE.
