Add a new has_gicv4 field in the global VGIC state that indicates
whether the HW is GICv4 capable, as a per-VM predicate indicating
if there is a possibility for a VM to support direct injection
(the above being true and the VM having an ITS).

Yup, reads much better.

uber nit: the naming here is a bit funny, because we won't be presenting
a GICv4 GIC to the guest, so I'd prefer something like
vgic_supports_direct_msis() or something like that, but this is
obviously not a deal breaker.
I like it. It has the advantage of not tying the predicate to a
particular direct injection method, should we one day have a GICv6 (no,
please...).

Thanks,

	M.
