IOMMUs that support nesting translation needs report the capability info
to userspace. It gives information about requirements the userspace needs
to implement plus other features characterizing the physical implementation.
This patch introduces a new IOMMU UAPI struct that gives information about
the nesting capabilities and features. This struct is supposed to be returned
by iommu_domain_get_attr() with DOMAIN_ATTR_NESTING attribute parameter, with
one domain whose type has been set to DOMAIN_ATTR_NESTING.

v7 -> v8:
*) add padding in struct iommu_nesting_info_vtd
*) describe future extension rules for struct iommu_nesting_info in iommu.rst.
*) remove SYSWIDE_PASID
v6 -> v7:
*) rephrase the commit message, replace the @data[] field in struct
iommu_nesting_info with union per comments from Eric Auger.
v5 -> v6:
*) rephrase the feature notes per comments from Eric Auger.
*) rename @size of struct iommu_nesting_info to @argsz.
v4 -> v5:
*) address comments from Eric Auger.
v3 -> v4:
*) split the SMMU driver changes to be a separate patch
*) move the @addr_width and @pasid_bits from vendor specific
part to generic part.
*) tweak the description for the @features field of struct
iommu_nesting_info.
*) add description on the @data[] field of struct iommu_nesting_info
v2 -> v3:
*) remvoe cap/ecap_mask in iommu_nesting_info.
*) reuse DOMAIN_ATTR_NESTING to get nesting info.
*) return an empty iommu_nesting_info for SMMU drivers per Jean'
suggestion.
