[PATCH 20/28] KVM: arm64: Add sanitisation for NVHCR_EL2

Just like any other VNCR-based register, NVHCR_EL2 requires some
level of sanitisation. Being specified as a live copy of HCR_EL2,
it adopts the exact same format, but depends on FEAT_NV3 instead.
A subtle aspect is that we only want to apply the sanitisation if
FEAT_NV3 is actually present, as the VNCR location is otherwise
used to back accesses to HCR_EL2.
