Use KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION2 throughout KVM's selftests library so that
support for guest private memory can be added without needing an entirely
separate set of helpers.

Note, this obviously makes selftests backwards-incompatible with older KVM

versions from this point forward.

Is there a way we could disable the tests on older kernels instead of
making them fail?  Check uname or something?  There is probably a
standard way to do this...  It's these tests which fail.

They shouldn't fail - the tests should be skipped on older kernels.

Ah, that makes sense.  Except for a few outliers that aren't all that interesting,
all KVM selftests create memslots, so I'm tempted to just make it a hard requirement
to spare us headache, e.g.

but it's also easy enough to be more precise and skip only those that actually
create memslots.

This is approach is what is recommended in kselfest document. Rubn as many tests
as possible and skip the ones that can't be run due to unmet dependencies.
