KVM/SVM: Allow direct access to MSR_IA32_SPEC_CTRL

[ Based on a patch from Paolo Bonzini <[email protected]> ]

... basically doing exactly what we do for VMX:

- Passthrough SPEC_CTRL to guests (if enabled in guest CPUID)
- Save and restore SPEC_CTRL around VMExit and VMEntry only if the guest
  actually used it.
