confidential guest support: Introduce cgs "ready" flag
The platform specific details of mechanisms for implementing confidential guest support may require setup at various points during initialization. Thus, it's not really feasible to have a single cgs initialization hook, but instead each mechanism needs its own initialization calls in arch or machine specific code. However, to make it harder to have a bug where a mechanism isn't properly initialized under some circumstances, we want to have a common place, late in boot, where we verify that cgs has been initialized if it was requested. This patch introduces a ready flag to the ConfidentialGuestSupport base type to accomplish this, which we verify in qemu_machine_creation_done().

|

* It's not feasible to have a single point in the common machine

* init path to configure confidential guest support, because
|

* different mechanisms have different interdependencies requiring
|

* initialization in different places, often in arch or machine
|
||||
* type specific code. It's also usually not possible to check
|
||||
* for invalid configurations until that initialization code.
|
||||
* That means it would be very easy to have a bug allowing CGS
|
||||
* init to be bypassed entirely in certain configurations.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Silently ignoring a requested security feature would be bad, so
|
||||
* to avoid that we check late in init that this 'ready' flag is
|
||||
* set if CGS was requested. If the CGS init hasn't happened, and
|
||||
* so 'ready' is not set, we'll abort.
