[PATCH v3 3/8] VFIO: platform: forwarded state tested when selecting IRQ handler

In case the IRQ is forwarded, the VFIO platform IRQ handler does not
need to disable the IRQ anymore.

When setting the IRQ handler we now also test the forwarded state. In
case the IRQ is forwarded we select the edge handler (no automaske).

v2 -> v3:
- forwarded state was tested in the handler. Now the forwarded state
  is tested before setting the handler. This definitively limits
  the dynamics of forwarded state changes but I don't think there is
  a use case where we need to be able to change the state at any time.
