KVM: x86: Introduce KVM_CAP_DISABLE_QUIRKS2
KVM_CAP_DISABLE_QUIRKS is irrevocably broken. The capability does not advertise the set of quirks which may be disabled to userspace, so it is impossible to predict the behavior of KVM. Worse yet, KVM_CAP_DISABLE_QUIRKS will tolerate any value for cap->args[0], meaning it fails to reject attempts to set invalid quirk bits. The only valid workaround for the quirky quirks API is to add a new CAP. Actually advertise the set of quirks that can be disabled to userspace so it can predict KVM's behavior. Reject values for cap->args[0] that contain invalid bits. Finally, add documentation for the new capability and describe the existing quirks.
