x86/vmware: Add a header file for hypercall definitions 

The new header is intended to be used by drivers using the backdoor.
Follow the KVM example using alternatives self-patching to choose
between vmcall, vmmcall and io instructions.

Also define two new CPU feature flags to indicate hypervisor support
for vmcall- and vmmcall instructions. The new XF86_FEATURE_VMW_VMMCALL
flag is needed because using XF86_FEATURE_VMMCALL might break QEMU/KVM
setups using the vmmouse driver. They rely on XF86_FEATURE_VMMCALL
on AMD to get the kvm_hypercall() right. But they do not yet implement
vmmcall for the VMware hypercall used by the vmmouse driver.

 [ bp: reflow hypercall %edx usage explanation comment. ]

* The hypercall definitions differ in the low word of the %edx argument

* bandwidth mode and transfer direction. The flags should be loaded
* into %dx by any user and are automatically replaced by the port
