KVM: x86: Fix INIT signal handling in various CPU states

Commit cd7764fe9f ("KVM: x86: latch INITs while in system management mode")
changed code to latch INIT while vCPU is in SMM and process latched INIT
when leaving SMM. It left a subtle remark in commit message that similar
treatment should also be done while vCPU is in VMX non-root-mode.

However, INIT signals should actually be latched in various vCPU states:
(*) For both Intel and AMD, INIT signals should be latched while vCPU
is in SMM.
(*) For Intel, INIT should also be latched while vCPU is in VMX
operation and later processed when vCPU leaves VMX operation by
executing VMXOFF.
(*) For AMD, INIT should also be latched while vCPU runs with GIF=0
or in guest-mode with intercept defined on INIT signal.

To fix this:
1) Add kvm_x86_ops->apic_init_signal_blocked() such that each CPU vendor
can define the various CPU states in which INIT signals should be
blocked and modify kvm_apic_accept_events() to use it.
2) Modify vmx_check_nested_events() to check for pending INIT signal
while vCPU in guest-mode. If so, emualte vmexit on
EXIT_REASON_INIT_SIGNAL. Note that nSVM should have similar behaviour
but is currently left as a TODO comment to implement in the future
because nSVM don't yet implement svm_check_nested_events().

Note: Currently KVM nVMX implementation don't support VMX wait-for-SIPI
activity state as specified in MSR_IA32_VMX_MISC bits 6:8 exposed to
guest (See nested_vmx_setup_ctls_msrs()).
If and when support for this activity state will be implemented,
kvm_check_nested_events() would need to avoid emulating vmexit on
INIT signal in case activity-state is wait-for-SIPI. In addition,
kvm_apic_accept_events() would need to be modified to avoid discarding
SIPI in case VMX activity-state is wait-for-SIPI but instead delay
SIPI processing to vmx_check_nested_events() that would clear
pending APIC events and emulate vmexit on SIPI.
