[PATCH v3 12/21] KVM:x86: Add fault checks for guest CR4.CET setting

Check potential faults for CR4.CET setting per Intel SDM.
CR4.CET is the master control bit for CET features (SHSTK and IBT).
In addition to basic support checks, CET can be enabled if and only
if CR0.WP==1, i.e. setting CR4.CET=1 faults if CR0.WP==0 and setting
CR0.WP=0 fails if CR4.CET==1.
