This patch fix bug https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=61411

TPR shadow/threshold feature is important to speed up the Windows guest.
Besides, it is a must feature for certain VMM.

We map virtual APIC page address and TPR threshold from L1 VMCS. If
TPR_BELOW_THRESHOLD VM exit is triggered by L2 guest and L1 interested
in, we inject it into L1 VMM for handling.

v1 -> v2:
 * don't take L0's "virtualize APIC accesses" setting into account
 * virtual_apic_page do exactly the same thing that is done for apic_access_page
 * add the tpr threshold field to the read-write fields for shadow VMCS
