kvm: add capability for halt polling

KVM_CAP_HALT_POLL is a per-VM capability that lets userspace
control the halt-polling time, allowing halt-polling to be tuned or
disabled on particular VMs.

With dynamic halt-polling, a VM's VCPUs can poll from anywhere from
[0, halt_poll_ns] on each halt. KVM_CAP_HALT_POLL sets the
upper limit on the poll time.
