hvmloader: always include HPET table

Windows SVVP tests require an HPET table even if the HPET is disabled.
This makes sense since the HPET _is_ in the DSDT and, while the OS does
not know that, in principle it's status may change.

(For what it's worth SeaBIOS, in addition to doing this, totally ignores
QEMU's -no-hpet flag and always reports 0x0f for the HPET's _STA method).
