drm/i915: Hold a reference to the active HW context

For virtual engines, we need to keep the HW context alive while it
remains in use. For regular HW contexts, they are created and kept alive
until the end of the GEM context. For simplicity, generalise the
requirements and keep an active reference to each HW context.
