    x86/pv: Fix the handling of `int $x` for vectors which alias exceptions
    
    The claim at the top of c/s 2e426d6eecf "x86/traps: Drop use_error_code
    parameter from do_{,guest_}trap()" is only actually true for hardware
    exceptions.  It is not true for `int $x` instructions (which never push 
error
    code), irrespective of whether the vector aliases an exception or not.
    
    Furthermore, c/s 6480cc6280e "x86/traps: Fix failed ASSERT() in
    do_guest_trap()" really should have helped highlight that a regression had
    been introduced.
    
    Modify pv_inject_event() to understand event types other than
    X86_EVENTTYPE_HW_EXCEPTION, and introduce pv_inject_sw_interrupt() for the
    `int $x` handling code.
    
    Add further assertions to pv_inject_event() concerning the type of events
    passed in, which in turn requires that do_guest_trap() set its type
    appropriately (which is now used exclusively for hardware exceptions).
    
    This is logically a backport of c/s 5c4f579e0ee4f38cad5636bbf8ce700a394338d0
    from Xen 4.9, but disentangled from the other injection work.
