KVM x86 APIC-ish changes for 6.20
- Fix a benign bug where KVM could use the wrong memslots (ignored SMM) when
creating a vCPU-specific mapping of guest memory.
- Clean up KVM's handling of marking mapped vCPU pages dirty.
- Drop a pile of *ancient* sanity checks hidden behind in KVM's unused
ASSERT() macro, most of which could be trivially triggered by the guest
and/or user, and all of which were useless.
- Fold "struct dest_map" into its sole user, "struct rtc_status", to make it
more obvious what the weird parameter is used for, and to allow burying the
RTC shenanigans behind CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC=y.
- Bury all of ioapic.h and KVM_IRQCHIP_KERNEL behind CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC=y.
- Add a regression test for recent APICv update fixes.
- Rework KVM's handling of VMCS updates while L2 is active to temporarily
switch to vmcs01 instead of deferring the update until the next nested
VM-Exit. The deferred updates approach directly contributed to several
bugs, was proving to be a maintenance burden due to the difficulty in
auditing the correctness of deferred updates, and was polluting
"struct nested_vmx" with a growing pile of booleans.
- Handle "hardware APIC ISR", a.k.a. SVI, updates in kvm_apic_update_apicv()
to consolidate the updates, and to co-locate SVI updates with the updates
for KVM's own cache of ISR information.
- Drop a dead function declaration.

Add a test to verify KVM correctly handles a variety of edge cases related
to APICv updates, and in particular updates that are triggered while L2 is
actively running.

Add a few extra TPR / CR8 tests to x86's xapic_state_test to see if:
* TPR is 0 on reset,
* TPR, PPR and CR8 are equal inside the guest,
* TPR and CR8 read equal by the host after a VMExit
* TPR borderline values set by the host correctly mask interrupts in the
guest.
These hopefully will catch the most obvious cases of improper TPR sync or
interrupt masking.
Do these tests both in x2APIC and xAPIC modes.
The x2APIC mode uses SELF_IPI register to trigger interrupts to give it a
bit of exercise too.

Use the kernel's canonical $(ARCH) paths instead of the raw target triple
for KVM selftests directories. KVM selftests are quite nearly the only
place in the entire kernel that using the target triple for directories,
tools/testing/selftests/drivers/s390x being the lone holdout.
Using the kernel's preferred nomenclature eliminates the minor, but
annoying, friction of having to translate to KVM's selftests directories,
e.g. for pattern matching, opening files, running selftests, etc.
Opportunsitically delete file comments that reference the full path of the
file, as they are obviously prone to becoming stale, and serve no known
purpose.
