x86/mtrr: Support setting MTRR state for software defined MTRRs

When running virtualized, MTRR access can be reduced (e.g. in Xen PV
guests or when running as a SEV-SNP guest under Hyper-V). Typically, the
hypervisor will not advertize the MTRR feature in CPUID data, resulting
in no MTRR memory type information being available for the kernel.

This has turned out to result in problems (Link tags below):

- Hyper-V SEV-SNP guests using uncached mappings where they shouldn't
- Xen PV dom0 mapping memory as WB which should be UC- instead

Solve those problems by allowing an MTRR static state override,
overwriting the empty state used today. In case such a state has been
set, don't call get_mtrr_state() in mtrr_bp_init().

The set state will only be used by mtrr_type_lookup(), as in all other
cases mtrr_enabled() is being checked, which will return false. Accept
the overwrite call only for selected cases when running as a guest.
Disable X86_FEATURE_MTRR in order to avoid any MTRR modifications by
just refusing them.
