Move "host-phys-bits" property from cpu->host_phys_bits to
cpu->env.features[FEAT_KVM_HINTS] (KVM_HINTS_HOST_PHYS_BITS).

This has the effect that the guest can see whenever host-phys-bits
is turned on or not and act accordingly.

Current mode of operation for firmware is to be conservative with
address space usage because is impossible to figure how much is
actually available.  This patch allows the firmware to use the full
physical address space available (with host-phys-bits=on).

Ccing some folks, since we are just now adding host bits awareness through the higher level tools.
