x86/sev: Provide SVSM discovery support
The SVSM specification documents an alternative method of discovery for the SVSM using a reserved CPUID bit and a reserved MSR. This is intended for guest components that do not have access to the secrets page in order to be able to call the SVSM (e.g. UEFI runtime services). For the MSR support, a new reserved MSR 0xc001f000 has been defined. A #VC should be generated when accessing this MSR. The #VC handler is expected to ignore writes to this MSR and return the physical calling area address (CAA) on reads of this MSR. While the CPUID leaf is updated, allowing the creation of a CPU feature, the code will continue to use the VMPL level as an indication of the presence of an SVSM. This is because the SVSM can be called well before the CPU feature is in place and a non-zero VMPL requires that an SVSM be present.
