[PATCH v4 17/40] KVM: arm64: Move userspace system registers into separate function

There's a semantic difference between the EL1 registers that control
operation of a kernel running in EL1 and EL1 registers that only control
userspace execution in EL0.  Since we can defer saving/restoring the
latter, move them into their own function.

ACTLR_EL1 is not used by a VHE host, so we can move this register into
the EL1 state which is not saved/restored for a VHE host.

We also take this chance to rename the function saving/restoring the
remaining system register to make it clear this function deals with
the EL1 system registers.

Notes:
    Changes since v3:
     - Correct the comment about ACTLR_EL1 and adjust commit text.
    
    Changes since v2:
     - Save restore ACTLR_EL1 as part of the EL1 registers state instead of
       the user register state, as ACTLR_EL1 can't affect the host's execution
       on VHE systems.
    
    Changes since v1:
     - Added comment about sp_el0 to common save sysreg save/restore functions
