KVM: x86: Introduce KVM_X86_QUIRK_VMCS12_ALLOW_FREEZE_IN_SMM

Add KVM_X86_QUIRK_VMCS12_ALLOW_FREEZE_IN_SMM to allow L1 to set
FREEZE_IN_SMM in vmcs12's GUEST_IA32_DEBUGCTL field, as permitted
prior to commit 6b1dd26544d0 ("KVM: VMX: Preserve host's
DEBUGCTLMSR_FREEZE_IN_SMM while running the guest").  Enable the quirk
by default for backwards compatibility (like all quirks); userspace
can disable it via KVM_CAP_DISABLE_QUIRKS2 for consistency with the
constraints on WRMSR(IA32_DEBUGCTL).

Note that the quirk only bypasses the consistency check.  The vmcs02 bit is
still owned by the host, and PMCs are not frozen during virtualized SMM.
In particular, if a host administrator decides that PMCs should not be
frozen during physical SMM, then L1 has no say in the matter.
