spapr/irq: add KVM support to the 'dual' machine
The interrupt mode is chosen by the CAS negotiation process and activated after a reset to take into account the required changes in the machine. This brings new constraints on how the associated KVM IRQ device is initialized. Currently, each model takes care of the initialization of the KVM device in their realize method but this is not possible anymore as the initialization needs to be done globaly when the interrupt mode is known, i.e. when machine is reseted. It also means that we need a way to delete a KVM device when another mode is chosen. Also, to support migration, the QEMU objects holding the state to transfer should always be available but not necessarily activated. The overall approach of this proposal is to initialize both interrupt mode at the QEMU level to keep the IRQ number space in sync and to allow switching from one mode to another. For the KVM side of things, the whole initialization of the KVM device, sources and presenters, is grouped in a single routine. The XICS and XIVE sPAPR IRQ reset handlers are modified accordingly to handle the init and the delete sequences of the KVM device.
