kvm: x86: add support for KVM_CAP_SPLIT_IRQCHIP
This patch adds support for split IRQ chip mode. When
KVM_CAP_SPLIT_IRQCHIP is enabled:

    1.) The PIC, PIT, and IOAPIC are implemented in userspace while
    the LAPIC is implemented by KVM.

    2.) The software IOAPIC delivers interrupts to the KVM LAPIC via
    kvm_set_irq. Interrupt delivery is configured via the MSI routing
    table, for which routes are reserved in target-i386/kvm.c then
    configured in hw/intc/ioapic.c

    3.) KVM delivers IOAPIC EOIs via a new exit KVM_EXIT_IOAPIC_EOI,
    which is handled in target-i386/kvm.c and relayed to the software
    IOAPIC via ioapic_eoi_broadcast.
