Previously, if the hrtimer for the nested VMX-preemption timer fired
while L0 was emulating an L2 instruction with RFLAGS.TF set, the
synthesized single-step trap would be unceremoniously dropped when
synthesizing the "VMX-preemption timer expired" VM-exit from L2 to L1.
To fix this, don't synthesize a "VMX-preemption timer expired" VM-exit
from L2 to L1 when there is a pending debug trap, such as a
single-step trap.
