Our PMU code is only implementing the ARMv8.1 features, so let's
stick to this when reporting the feature set to the guest.

Not just limit, but upgrade too! (force?)
This looks safe because ARMV8_PMU_EVTYPE_EVENT always includes the
extra bits this added, and the register is always trapped.

That's definitely not what I intended! Let me fix that one.

The PMU version is also readable via ID_DFR0_EL1.PerfMon, should that
be sanitised to be the same? (I don't think we've hidden an aarch64
feature that also existed in aarch32 before).

Indeed, yet another oversight. I'll fix that too.

Regardless:

You're way too kind! ;-)
