KVM: x86: Make nanoseconds per APIC bus cycle a VM variable

Introduce the VM variable "nanoseconds per APIC bus cycle" in
preparation to make the APIC bus frequency configurable.

The TDX architecture hard-codes the core crystal clock frequency to
25MHz and mandates exposing it via CPUID leaf 0x15. The TDX architecture
does not allow the VMM to override the value.

In addition, per Intel SDM:
    "The APIC timer frequency will be the processor’s bus clock or core
     crystal clock frequency (when TSC/core crystal clock ratio is
     enumerated in CPUID leaf 0x15) divided by the value specified in
     the divide configuration register."

The resulting 25MHz APIC bus frequency conflicts with the KVM hardcoded
APIC bus frequency of 1GHz.

Introduce the VM variable "nanoseconds per APIC bus cycle" to prepare
for allowing userspace to tell KVM to use the frequency that TDX mandates
instead of the default 1Ghz. Doing so ensures that the guest doesn't have
a conflicting view of the APIC bus frequency.
