KVM: VMX: Add helpers to query Intel PT mode
Add helpers to query which of the (two) supported PT modes is active. The primary motivation is to help document that there is a third PT mode (host-only) that's currently not supported by KVM. As is, it's not obvious that PT_MODE_SYSTEM != !PT_MODE_HOST_GUEST and vice versa, e.g. that "pt_mode == PT_MODE_SYSTEM" and "pt_mode != PT_MODE_HOST_GUEST" are two distinct checks. No functional change intended.
