Define new XFEATURE_MASK_KERNEL_DYNAMIC set including the features can be optionally enabled by kernel components, i.e., the features are required by specific kernel components. Currently it's used by KVM to configure guest dedicated fpstate for calculating the xfeature and fpstate storage size etc. The kernel dynamic xfeatures now only contain XFEATURE_CET_KERNEL, which is supported by host as they're enabled in xsaves/xrstors operating xfeature set (XCR0 | XSS), but the relevant CPU feature, i.e., supervisor shadow stack, is not enabled in host kernel so it can be omitted for normal fpstate by default. Remove the kernel dynamic feature from fpu_kernel_cfg.default_features so that the bits in xstate_bv and xcomp_bv are cleared and xsaves/xrstors can be optimized by HW for normal fpstate.
