Add IOMMU_DOMAIN_EXTERNAL for externally managed domains that move or
attach devices to another VM address space provisioned by an external
owner, such as a type 1 hypervisor.

This is not a paging domain and is not sysfs-selectable as a default
domain type. It requires external owner context, such as a vIOMMU.

PV IOMMU drivers are expected to use it when moving a device to a guest
VM with an already-created S2 IOPT.
