Allow userspace to change the guest-visible value of the register with
some severe limitation:

  - No changes to features not virtualized by KVM (MPAM_frac, RAS_frac)

Also add the selftest for it.

Changelog:
----------
v1 -> v2:
  * Tackling the full register instead of single field.
  * Changing the patch title and commit message.

RFCv1 -> v1:
  * Fix the compilation error.
  * Delete the machine specific information and make the description more
    generable.

RFCv1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240612023553.127813-1-shahuang@redhat.com/
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240617075131.1006173-1-shahuang@redhat.com/
