KVM: Introduce KVM_CAP_MANUAL_DIRTY_LOG_PROTECT2

Browse Source 
The previous KVM_CAP_MANUAL_DIRTY_LOG_PROTECT has some problem which
blocks the correct usage from userspace.  Obsolete the old one and
introduce a new capability bit for it.

KVM_CAP_MANUAL_DIRTY_LOG_PROTECT2 was previously available under the name
KVM_CAP_MANUAL_DIRTY_LOG_PROTECT, but the implementation had bugs that make
it hard or impossible to use it correctly. The availability of
KVM_CAP_MANUAL_DIRTY_LOG_PROTECT2 signals that those bugs are fixed.
Userspace should not try to use KVM_CAP_MANUAL_DIRTY_LOG_PROTECT.
