Defining a separate capabilities.h as opposed to putting this code in
e.g. vmx.h avoids circular dependencies between (the yet-to-be-added)
vmx.h and nested.h. The aforementioned circular dependencies are why
struct nested_vmx_msrs also resides in capabilities instead of e.g.
nested.h.

...instead of referencing the global struct. This will allow moving
setup_vmcs_config() to a separate file that may not have access to
the global variable. Modify nested_vmx_setup_ctls_msrs() appropriately
since vmx_capability.ept may not be accurate when called by
vmx_check_processor_compat().
No functional change intended.

EFER and PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL MSRs have dedicated VM Entry/Exit controls
that KVM dynamically toggles based on whether or not the guest's value
for each MSRs differs from the host. Handle the dynamic behavior by
adding a helper that clears the dynamic bits so the bits aren't set
when initializing the VMCS field outside of the dynamic toggling flow.
This makes the handling consistent with similar behavior for other
controls, e.g. pin, exec and sec_exec. More importantly, it eliminates
two global bools that are stealthily modified by setup_vmcs_config.
Opportunistically clean up a comment and print related to errata for
IA32_PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL.

MSR_IA32_XSS has no relation to the VMCS whatsoever, it doesn't belong
in setup_vmcs_config() and its reference to host_xss prevents moving
setup_vmcs_config() to a dedicated file.

VMX specific files now reside in a dedicated subdirectory, i.e. the
file name prefix is redundant.

VMX specific files now reside in a dedicated subdirectory. Drop the
"vmx" prefix, which is redundant, and add a "vmcs" prefix to clarify
that the file is referring to VMCS shadow fields.
