arm64: Add hypervisor safe helper for checking constant capabilities
The hypervisor may not have full access to the kernel data structures
and hence cannot safely use cpus_have_cap() helper for checking the
system capability. Add a safe helper for hypervisors to check a constant
system capability, which *doesn't* fall back to checking the bitmap
maintained by the kernel. With this, make the cpus_have_cap() only
check the bitmask and force constant cap checks to use the new API
for quicker checks.
