arm64: KVM: Add Kconfig option for max VCPUs per-Guest
Current max VCPUs per-Guest is set to 4 which is preventing us from creating a Guest (or VM) with 8 VCPUs on Host (e.g. X-Gene Storm SOC) with 8 Host CPUs. The correct value of max VCPUs per-Guest should be same as the max CPUs supported by GICv2 which is 8 but, increasing value of max VCPUs per-Guest can make things slower hence we add Kconfig option to let KVM users select appropriate max VCPUs per-Guest.
