Subject: [RFC 01/14] KVM: x86/MMU: Add shadow_mmu.(c|h)

As a first step to splitting the Shadow MMU out of KVM MMU common code,
add separate files for it with some of the boilerplate and includes the
Shadow MMU will need.

No functional change intended.

+ * developed organically from hardware which did not have second level paging,
+ * and so used "shadow paging" to virtualize guest memory. The Shadow MMU is
+ * an alternative to the TDP MMU which only supports hardware with Two
+ * Dimentional Paging. (e.g. EPT on Intel or NPT on AMD CPUs.) Note that the
+ * Shadow MMU also supports TDP, it's just less scalable. The Shadow and TDP
+ * MMUs can cooperate to support nested virtualization on hardware with TDP.
