x86/nested-svm: Update the paging mode on VMRUN and VMEXIT emulation.

This allows Xen to walk the l1 hypervisor's shadow pagetable
correctly.  Not needed for hap-on-hap guests because they are handled
at lookup time.  Problem found with 64bit Win7 and 32bit XPMode where Win7
switches forth and back between long mode and PAE legacy pagetables.

[Adjusted to update in all cases where the l1 vmm uses shadows]
