This is used as part of implementing run control in bhyve's debug
server. The hypervisor now maintains a set of "debugged" CPUs.
Attempting to run a debugged CPU will fail to execute any guest
instructions and will instead report a VM_EXITCODE_DEBUG exit to
the userland hypervisor. Virtual CPUs are placed into the debugged
state via vm_suspend_cpu() (implemented via a new VM_SUSPEND_CPU ioctl).
Virtual CPUs can be resumed via vm_resume_cpu() (VM_RESUME_CPU ioctl).
The debug server suspends virtual CPUs when it wishes them to stop
executing in the guest (for example, when a debugger attaches to the
server). The debug server can choose to resume only a subset of CPUs
(for example, when single stepping) or it can choose to resume all
CPUs. The debug server must explicitly mark a CPU as resumed via
vm_resume_cpu() before the virtual CPU will successfully execute any
guest instructions.
