Series arm64: Add support for FEAT_E2H0, or lack thereof | expand

FEAT_E2H0 is a new feature that indicates whether or not HCR_EL2.E2H
can be set to 0. Amusingly, this feature is set to 0 when implemented,
and otherwise negative.

Add a new capability and detection infrastructure to detect the
absence of FEAT_E2H0.

Is ARM64_CPUCAP_SYSTEM_FEATURE the right thing to use here? For example,
if the boot CPUs have this feature but a late CPU doesn't, then I think
we should be ok as long as we're using VHE, but I don't think the above
takes that into account.

Maybe we shouldn't be adding new capabilities for this at all, and instead
just look at the sanitised register value when we need to?

That's probably good enough for this particular use of E2H0, as this
is not used on any fast path.

However, when E2H0 is 0b1110 (NV1 being RES0, and thus the guest's own
HCR_EL2.E2H being RES1), we need to sanitise the guest's HCR_EL2 no
matter what the guest writes there.

With that in mind, __vcpu_el2_e2h_is_set() using the sanitised value
would result in a binary search on a lot of very hot paths, something
that I'm keen to avoid.

So while I'm happy to drop this particular cap, I'll keep the one
introduced in patch #6.

Thanks,

	M.
