This patch advertises the capability of two cpu feature called address
pointer authentication and generic pointer authentication. These
capabilities depend upon system support for pointer authentication and
VHE mode.
The current arm64 KVM partially implements pointer authentication and
support of address/generic authentication are tied together. However,
separate ABI requirements for both of them is added so that the future
isolated implementation will not require any ABI changes.

Changes since v7:
* Created 2 capabilities KVM_CAP_ARM_PTRAUTH_ADDRESS and KVM_CAP_ARM_PTRAUTH_GENERIC
instead of one KVM_CAP_ARM_PTRAUTH [Kristina Martsenko].
* Added documentation here itself instead of in a new patch.
