The changelog needs a lot more detail on what is saved where and when,
e.g. hardware unconditionally saves the guest MSRs to the VMCS fields
on exit, hence there is no VM_EXIT_SAVE_GUEST_CET_STATE control bit.

It's also worth calling out that the other CET MSRs are saved/loaded
via XSAVES/XRSTORS.

Dropping a single letter from "TABLE" seems pointless, "INTERRUPT" is
usually "INTR", and the docs I've seen list the name as
IA32_INTERRUPT_SSP_TABLE_ADDR.  So maybe?

    {GUEST,HOST}_INTR_SSP_TABLE_ADDR


Also, the SSP and INTERRUPT_SSP_TABL_ADDR fields are 64-bit fields, we
we should define the _HIGH variations.
