    x86/cpuid: Move VMX/SVM out of the default policy
    
    Nested virt is still experimental, and requires explicitly opting in to at
    domain create time.  The VMX/SVM features should not be visible by default.
    
    Also correct them from all HVM guests, to just HAP-enabled guests.  This has
    been the restriction for SVM right from the outset (c/s e006a0e0aaa), while
    VMX was first introduced supporting shadow mode (c/s 9122c69c8d3) but later
    adjusted to HAP-only (c/s 77751ed79e3).
    
    There is deliberately no adjustment to xc_cpuid_apply_policy() for pre-4.14
    migration compatibility.  The migration stream doesn't contain the required
    architectural state for either VMX/SVM, and a nested virt VM which migrates
    will explode in weird and wonderful ways.
