SEV-ES guests can request termination using the GHCB's MSR protocol. See
AMD's GHCB spec section '4.1.13 Termination Request'. Currently when a
guest does this the userspace VMM sees an KVM_EXIT_UNKNOWN (-EVINAL)
return code from KVM_RUN. By adding a KVM_EXIT_SHUTDOWN_ENTRY to kvm_run
struct the userspace VMM can clearly see the guest has requested a SEV-ES
termination including the termination reason code set and reason code.

Looks good, but it has to also add a capability.
Thanks for the quick review! Just so I understand. I should add
KVM_CAP_SEV_TERM or something, then if that has been enabled do the
new functionality, else keep the old functionality?
No, much simpler; just something for which KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION returns
1, so that userspace knows that there is a "shutdown" member to be
filled by KVM_EXIT_SHUTDOWN. e.g. KVM_CAP_EXIT_SHUTDOWN_REASON.
