KVM: arm64: GICv3: Avoid broadcast kick on CPUs lacking TDIR 



CPUs lacking TDIR always trap ICV_DIR_EL1, no matter what, since
we have ICH_HCR_EL2.TC set permanently. For these CPUs, it is
useless to use a broadcast kick on SPI injection, as the sole
purpose of this is to set TDIR.

We can therefore skip this on these CPUs, which are challenged
enough not to be burdened by extra IPIs. As a consequence,
permanently set the TDIR bit in the shadow state to notify the
fast-path emulation code of the exit reason.
