[PATCH v3 10/12] KVM: arm64: trap nested debug register access

When we are using the hardware registers for guest debug we need to deal
with the guests access to them. There is already a mechanism for dealing
with these accesses so we build on top of that.
- any access to mdscr_el1 is now stored in the mirror location
- access to DBG[WB][CV]R continues to go to guest's context
There is one register (MDCCINT_EL1) which guest debug doesn't care about
so this behaves as before.

- re-factor for better flow and fall through.
- much simpler with debug_ptr (use the guest area as before)
- tweak shadow fn to avoid multi-line if
