KVM: nVMX: Open a window for pending nested VMX preemption timer

Add a kvm_x86_ops hook to detect a nested pending "hypervisor timer" and
use it to effectively open a window for servicing the expired timer.
Like pending SMIs on VMX, opening a window simply means requesting an
immediate exit.

This fixes a bug where an expired VMX preemption timer (for L2) will be
delayed and/or lost if a pending exception is injected into L2.  The
pending exception is rightly prioritized by vmx_check_nested_events()
and injected into L2, with the preemption timer left pending.  Because
no window opened, L2 is free to run uninterrupted.

[Check it in kvm_vcpu_has_events too, to ensure that the preemption
 timer is serviced promptly even if the vCPU is halted and L1 is not
 intercepting HLT. - Paolo]
