KVM: x86: export paravirtual cpuid flags in KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID
Right now, we were using individual KVM_CAP entities to communicate
userspace about which cpuids we support. This is suboptimal, since it
generates a delay between the feature arriving in the host, and
being available at the guest.
A much better mechanism is to list para features in KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID.
This makes userspace automatically aware of what we provide. And if we
ever add a new cpuid bit in the future, we have to do that again,
which create some complexity and delay in feature adoption.
