Introduce KVM panic hypercall support to make QEMU aware of a crashed guest. This patches are specific to a KVM paravirtulized guest which need to call KVM_HC_PANIC on a crash/panic. The basic idea of this implementation and of the QMP PANIC event is to be able to create crashdump via the hypervisor instead of kexec/kdump as soon the guest crashes.
