128531d9e1 i386/kvm: add support for Direct Mode for Hyper-V synthetic timers
Hyper-V on KVM can only use Synthetic timers with Direct Mode (opting for
an interrupt instead of VMBus message). This new capability is only
announced in KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_HV_CPUID.

e48ddcc6ce i386/kvm: implement 'hv-passthrough' mode
In many case we just want to give Windows guests all currently supported
Hyper-V enlightenments and that's where this new mode may come handy. We
pass through what was returned by KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_HV_CPUID.

hv_cpuid_check_and_set() is modified to also set cpu->hyperv_* flags as
we may want to check them later (and we actually do for hv_runtime,
hv_synic,...).

'hv-passthrough' is a development only feature, a migration blocker is
added to prevent issues while migrating between hosts with different
feature sets.

fb19f72b77 i386/kvm: document existing Hyper-V enlightenments
Currently, there is no doc describing hv-* CPU flags, people are
encouraged to get the information from Microsoft Hyper-V Top Level
Functional specification (TLFS). There is, however, a bit of QEMU
specifics.
