When having a decrementor interrupt pending, the dequeuing happens manually through an mtdec instruction. This instruction simply calls dequeue on that interrupt, so the int_pending hint doesn't get updated. This patch enables updating the int_pending hint also on dequeue, thus correctly enabling guests to stay in guest contexts more often.
