Hmm, I wonder if it would be possible to share code/infrastructure with Erdem's
in-progress TDX selftest framework[*].  TDX forces vCPUs to start at the legacy
reset vector with paging disabled, so it needs a lot of the same glue code as a
from-RESET test would need.  TDX forces 32-bit PM instead of RM, but it should
be easy enough to allow an optional opening sequence to get into 32-bit PM.

We could also test INIT without much trouble since INIT to the BSP will send it
back to the reset vector, e.g. set a flag somewhere to avoid an infinite loop and
INIT self.

Let me work with Erdem to see if we can concoct something that will work for
both TDX and tests that want to take control at RESET.
