KVM: Check for pending events before attempting injection

Instead of blindly attempting to inject an event before each guest entry,
check for a possible event first in vcpu->requests.  Sites that can trigger
event injection are modified to set KVM_REQ_EVENT:

- interrupt, nmi window opening
- ppr updates
- i8259 output changes
- local apic irr changes
- rflags updates
- gif flag set
- event set on exit

This improves non-injecting entry performance, and sets the stage for
non-atomic injection.
