KVM: x86/mmu: Use KVM-governed feature framework to track "GBPAGES enabled"
Use the governed feature framework to track whether or not the guest can use 1GiB pages, and drop the one-off helper that wraps the surprisingly non-trivial logic surrounding 1GiB page usage in the guest. No functional change intended.
