Add virtualized XSAVE support to bhyve which permits guests to use XSAVE and
XSAVE-enabled features like AVX.
- Store a per-cpu guest xcr0 register and handle xsetbv VM exits by emulating
  the instruction.
- Only expose XSAVE to guests if XSAVE is enabled in the host.  Only expose
  a subset of XSAVE features currently supported by the guest and for which
  the proper emulation of xsetbv is known.  Currently this includes X87, SSE,
  AVX, AVX-512, and Intel MPX.
- Add support for injecting hardware exceptions into the guest and use this
  to trigger exceptions in the guest for invalid xsetbv operations instead
  of potentially faulting in the host.
- Queue pending exceptions in the 'struct vcpu' instead of directly updating
  the processor-specific VMCS or VMCB. The pending exception will be delivered
  right before entering the guest.
- Rename the unused ioctl VM_INJECT_EVENT to VM_INJECT_EXCEPTION and restrict
  it to only deliver x86 hardware exceptions. This new ioctl is now used to
  inject a protection fault when the guest accesses an unimplemented MSR.
- Expose a subset of known-safe features from leaf 0 of the structured
  extended features to guests if they are supported on the host including
  RDFSBASE/RDGSBASE, BMI1/2, AVX2, AVX-512, HLE, ERMS, and RTM.  Aside
  from AVX-512, these features are all new instructions available for use
  in ring 3 with no additional hypervisor changes needed.
