Series [v2,1/2] viridian: remove implicit limit of 64 VPs per partition | expand

Commit Message

If Viridian extensions are enabled, Windows wouldn't currently allow
a hotplugged vCPU to be brought up dynamically. We need to expose a special
bit to let the guest know we allow it. Hide it behind an option to stay
on the safe side regarding compatibility with existing guests but
nevertheless set the option on by default.

Changes on v2:
- hide the bit under an option and expose it in libxl
