KVM: Allow and advertise support for host mmap() on guest_memfd files

Browse Source 
Now that all the x86 and arm64 plumbing for mmap() on guest_memfd is in
place, allow userspace to set GUEST_MEMFD_FLAG_MMAP and advertise support
via a new capability, KVM_CAP_GUEST_MEMFD_MMAP.

The availability of this capability is determined per architecture, and
its enablement for a specific guest_memfd instance is controlled by the
GUEST_MEMFD_FLAG_MMAP flag at creation time.

Update the KVM API documentation to detail the KVM_CAP_GUEST_MEMFD_MMAP
capability, the associated GUEST_MEMFD_FLAG_MMAP, and provide essential
information regarding support for mmap in guest_memfd.
