[RFC PATCH kvmtool 4/5] ARM: Add a helper to re-init a vCPU

Create a helper that can be called to reinitialize a particular vCPU, or
in other words issue the KVM_ARM_VCPU_INIT and KVM_ARM_VCPU_FINALIZE
ioctls accordingly.

Make use of the helper from kvm_cpu__arch_init() after the correct
target/feature set have been identified. Calling KVM_ARM_VCPU_INIT with
the same target more than once is benign.
