KVM: selftests: Add support for per-VM ucall ops on x86

This commit introduces a layer of indirection for x86 ucall operations to
support TDX VMs. It replaces hardcoded ucall functions with an operations
structure that can be customized.

[Severity: Medium]
The commit message mentions adding support for per-VM ucall ops, but
ucall_x86_ops is defined as a static global variable. Doesn't this mean it
will act as a process-wide shared variable on the host side, rather than
being isolated per-VM?

If a selftest process initializes a TDX VM (which presumably overrides
these operations) followed by a non-TDX VM, or runs multiple VMs
concurrently, will the non-TDX VMs incorrectly end up using the TDX ucall
callbacks?
