[PATCH v3 2/3] selftests: KVM: Don't leak GIC FD across dirty log test iterations

dirty_log_perf_test instantiates a VGICv3 for the guest (if supported by
hardware) to reduce the overhead of guest exits. However, the test does
not actually close the GIC fd when cleaning up the VM between test
iterations, meaning that the VM is never actually destroyed in the
kernel.

While this is generally a bad idea, the bug was detected from the kernel
spewing about duplicate debugfs entries as subsequent VMs happen to
reuse the same FD even though the debugfs directory is still present.

Abstract away the notion of setup/cleanup of the GIC FD from the test
by creating arch-specific helpers for test setup/cleanup. Close the GIC
FD on VM cleanup and do nothing for the other architectures.
