Add support for emulating read and write accesses to CET MSRs.
CET MSRs are universally "special" as they are either context switched
via dedicated VMCS fields or via XSAVES, i.e. no additional in-memory
tracking is needed, but emulated reads/writes are more expensive.

It may be better to merge the two if statements into one to avoid calling guest_cpuid_has(vcpu, X86_FEATURE_SHSTK) twice.

Yeah, it sounds good to me, thanks!

e.g,

    if (!guest_cpuid_has(vcpu, X86_FEATURE_SHSTK) &&
        (!guest_cpuid_has(vcpu, X86_FEATURE_IBT) || msr->index == MSR_IA32_PL3_SSP))
        return false;
