[PATCH v8 2/8] KVM: arm64: Separate guest/host counter offset values

In some instances, a VMM may want to update the guest's counter-timer
offset in a transparent manner, meaning that changes to the hardware
value do not affect the synthetic register presented to the guest or the
VMM through said guest's architectural state. Lay the groundwork to
separate guest offset register writes from the hardware values utilized
by KVM.
