KVM: x86/xen: Support per-vCPU event channel upcall via local APIC

Windows uses a per-vCPU vector, and it's delivered via the local APIC
basically like an MSI (with associated EOI) unlike the traditional
guest-wide vector which is just magically asserted by Xen (and in the
KVM case by kvm_xen_has_interrupt() / kvm_cpu_get_extint()).

Now that the kernel is able to raise event channel events for itself,
being able to do so for Windows guests is also going to be useful.
