Add a selftest to verify KVM correctly virtualizes the AMD PMU Host-Only
(bit 41) and Guest-Only (bit 40) event selector bits across all relevant
SVM state transitions.

The test programs 4 PMCs simultaneously with all combinations of the
Host-Only and Guest-Only bits, then verifies correct counting behavior:
  1. SVME=0: all counters count (Host-Only/Guest-Only bits ignored)
  2. Set SVME=1: Host-Only and neither/both count; Guest-Only stops
  3. VMRUN to L2: Guest-Only and neither/both count; Host-Only stops
  4. VMEXIT to L1: Host-Only and neither/both count; Guest-Only stops
  5. Clear SVME=0: all counters count (bits ignored again)
