pvpanic: introduce crashloaded for pvpanic 

Add bit 1 for pvpanic. This bit means that guest hits a panic, but
guest wants to handle error by itself. Typical case: Linux guest runs
kdump in panic. It will help us to separate the abnormal reboot from
normal operation.

@ -16,8 +16,12 @@ pvpanic exposes a single I/O port, by default 0x505. On read, the bits
recognized by the device are set. Software should ignore bits it doesn't
recognize. On write, the bits not recognized by the device are ignored.
Software should set only bits both itself and the device recognize.
Currently, only bit 0 is recognized, setting it indicates a guest panic
has happened.
