    x86/msi: passthrough all MSI-X vector ctrl writes to device model
    
    QEMU needs to know whether clearing maskbit of a vector is really
    clearing, or was already cleared before. Currently Xen sends only
    clearing that bit to the device model, but not setting it, so QEMU
    cannot detect it. Because of that, QEMU is working this around by
    checking via /dev/mem, but that isn't the proper approach.
    
    Give all necessary information to QEMU by passing all ctrl writes,
    including masking a vector. Advertise the new behavior via
    XENVER_get_features, so QEMU can know it doesn't need to access /dev/mem
    anymore.
    
    While this commit doesn't move the whole maskbit handling to QEMU (as
    discussed on xen-devel as one of the possibilities), it is a necessary
    first step anyway. Including telling QEMU it will get all the required
    information to do so. The actual implementation would need to include:
     - a hypercall for QEMU to control just maskbit (without (re)binding the
       interrupt again
     - a method for QEMU to tell Xen it will actually do the work
    Those are not part of this series.
