KVM: Documentation: Enumerate allowed value macros of `irq_type`
The expression `irq_type[n]` may confuse readers to interpret `n` as the bit position and think of CPU = 1 << 0, SPI = 1 << 1, and PPI = 1 << 2. Since arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h already has macro definitions for the allowed values, this commit uses these symbols to clear up the ambiguity.

The irq_type field has the following values:
-- irq_type[0]:
+- KVM_ARM_IRQ_TYPE_CPU:
out-of-kernel GIC: irq_id 0 is IRQ, irq_id 1 is FIQ
-- irq_type[1]:
+- KVM_ARM_IRQ_TYPE_SPI:
in-kernel GIC: SPI, irq_id between 32 and 1019 (incl.)
(the vcpu_index field is ignored)
-- irq_type[2]:
+- KVM_ARM_IRQ_TYPE_PPI:
in-kernel GIC: PPI, irq_id between 16 and 31 (incl.)
(The irq_id field thus corresponds nicely to the IRQ ID in the ARM GIC specs)
