[PATCH v2 02/12] mm: Introduce a function to check for virtualization protection features

In prep for other protected virtualization technologies, introduce a
generic helper function, prot_guest_has(), that can be used to check
for specific protection attributes, like memory encryption. This is
intended to eliminate having to add multiple technology-specific checks
to the code (e.g. if (sev_active() || tdx_active())).
