KVM: x86: nSVM: support PAUSE filtering when L0 doesn't intercept PAUSE
Expose the pause filtering and threshold in the guest CPUID and support PAUSE filtering when possible: - If the L0 doesn't intercept PAUSE (cpu_pm=on), then allow L1 to have full control over PAUSE filtering. - if the L1 doesn't intercept PAUSE, use host values and update the adaptive count/threshold even when running nested. - Otherwise always exit to L1; it is not really possible to merge the fields correctly. It is expected that in this case, userspace will not enable this feature in the guest CPUID, to avoid having the guest update both fields pointlessly.
