Subject: [V4 7/8] KVM: selftests: Update ucall pool to allocate from shared memory

Update the per VM ucall_header allocation from vm_vaddr_alloc() to
vm_vaddr_alloc_shared(). This allows encrypted guests to use ucall pools
by placing their shared ucall structures in unencrypted (shared) memory.
No behavior change for non encrypted guests.
