[RFC 06/55] KVM: arm64: Add EL2 execution context for nesting

With the nested virtualization support, the context of the guest
includes EL2 register states. The host manages a set of virtual EL2
registers.  In addition to that, the guest hypervisor supposed to run in
EL2 is now deprivilaged and runs in EL1. So, the host also manages a set
of shadow system registers to be able to run the guest hypervisor in
EL1.
