kvm: require KVM_CAP_SIGNAL_MSI

This was introduced in KVM in Linux 3.5, we can require it unconditionally
in kvm_irqchip_send_msi().  However, not all architectures have to implement
it so check it only in x86, the only architecture that ever had MSI injection
but not KVM_CAP_SIGNAL_MSI.

ARM uses it to detect the presence of the ITS emulation in the kernel,
introduced in Linux 4.8.  Assume that it's there and possibly fail when
realizing the arm-its-kvm device.
