The 'vp_assist' page is currently an example of a guest page which needs to
be kept mapped throughout the life-time of a guest, but there are other
such examples in the specifiction [1]. This patch therefore introduces a
generic 'viridian_page' type and converts the current vp_assist/apic_assist
related code to use it. Subsequent patches implementing other enlightments
can then also make use of it.
This patch also renames the 'vp_assist_pending' field in struct
hvm_viridian_vcpu_context to 'apic_assist_pending' to more accurately
reflect its meaning. The term 'vp_assist' applies to the whole page rather
than just the EOI-avoidance enlightenment. New versons of the specification
have defined data structures for other enlightenments within the same page.
No functional change.

The casts weren't even to the right type - all LAPIC registers are
32-bit (pairs/groups of registers may be combined to form larger logical
ones, but this is not visible in the given data representation).

Also avoid printing the MSR flags (they're always zero as of commit
2f1add6e1c "x86/vmx: Don't leak host syscall MSR state into HVM
guests"), and print FPU registers only when the respective flag
indicates the space holds valid data.
Adjust format specifiers a little at the same time, in particular to
avoid at least some leading zeros to be printed when the positions
can't ever be non-zero. This helps readability in my opinion.

The recent commit 66bf4ef0 "x86/hvm: re-work viridian APIC assist code"
modified one of the field names in struct hvm_viridian_vcpu_context but
did not accordingly modify xen-hvmctx, leading to a failure to build tools.
This patch makes the necessary change to fix the build.

The Hypervisor Top Level Functional Specification v5.0a has many differences
from previous versions and introduces whole new sections.
This patch:
- Updates the URL at the top of the source.
- Fixes up section references accordingly.
- Modifies the MSR naming convention in the code to match the specification.
- Rename the apic_assist page to the vp_assist page to reflect the change
in the specification.
(The APIC assist feature itself is inconsistently named in the
specification so stick wth the current feature name).
- Updates the handling of CPUID leaf 3.
There is one functional change in this patch: The vp_assist page is
mapped (and completely zeroed) regardless of whether the APIC assist
feature is enabled. This reflects its new wider remit and simplifies the
code slightly.

Commit 78c5f59e "x86/hvm/viridian: save APIC assist vector" changed
the name of a field in the viridian vcpu save record. Unfortunately this
record has a decode function in xen-hvmctx and so it no longer builds.
This patch fixes the field name in xen-hvmctx and also adds a decode of
the additional field that was added to the save record.

This patch provides vMCE save/restore when migration.
1. MCG_CAP is well-defined. However, considering future cap extension,
we keep save/restore logic that Jan implement at c/s 24887;
2. MCi_CTL2 initialized by guestos when booting, so need save/restore
otherwise guest would surprise;
3. Other MSRs do not need save/restore since they are either error-
related and pointless to save/restore, or, unified among all vMCE
platform;

This allows migration to a host with less MCA banks than the source
host had, while without this patch accesses to the excess banks' MSRs
caused #GP-s in the guest after migration (and it depended on the guest
kernel whether this would be fatal).
A fundamental question is whether we should also save/restore MCG_CTL
and MCi_CTL, as the HVM save record would better be defined to the
complete state that needs saving from the beginning (I'm unsure whether
the save/restore logic allows for future extension of an existing
record).
Of course, this change is expected to make migration from new to older
Xen impossible (again I'm unsure what the save/restore logic does with
records it doesn't even know about).
The (trivial) tools side change may seem unrelated, but the code should
have been that way from the beginning to allow the hypervisor to look
at currently unused ext_vcpucontext fields without risking to read
garbage when those fields get a meaning assigned in the future. This
isn't being enforced here - should it be? (Obviously, for backwards
compatibility, the hypervisor must assume these fields to be clear only
when the extended context's size exceeds the old original one.)
A future addition to this change might be to allow configuration of the
number of banks and other MCA capabilities for a guest before it starts
(i.e. to not inherits the values seen on the first host it runs on).

This patch eliminate the global variables in libxenctrl (used for
logging and error reporting).
Instead the information which was in the global variables is now in a
new xc_interface* opaque structure, which xc_interface open returns
instead of the raw file descriptor; furthermore, logging is done via
xentoollog.
There are three new parameters to xc_interface_open to control the
logging, but existing callers can just pass "0" for all three to get
the old behaviour.
All libxc callers have been adjusted accordingly.
Also update QEMU_TAG for corresponding qemu change.
