Port I/O instructions trigger #VE in the TDX environment. In response to
the exception, kernel emulates these instructions using hypercalls.
But during early boot, on the decompression stage, it is cumbersome to
deal with #VE. It is cleaner to go to hypercalls directly, bypassing #VE
handling.
Hook up TDX-specific port I/O helpers if booting in TDX environment.

The early decompression code does port I/O for its console output. But,
handling the decompression-time port I/O demands a different approach
from normal runtime because the IDT required to support #VE based port
I/O emulation is not yet set up. Paravirtualizing I/O calls during
the decompression step is acceptable because the decompression code
doesn't have a lot of call sites to IO instruction.
To support port I/O in decompression code, TDX must be detected before
the decompression code might do port I/O. Detect whether the kernel runs
in a TDX guest.
Add an early_is_tdx_guest() interface to query the cached TDX guest
status in the decompression code.
TDX is detected with CPUID. Make cpuid_count() accessible outside
boot/cpuflags.c.
TDX detection in the main kernel is very similar. Move common bits
into <asm/shared/tdx.h>.
The actual port I/O paravirtualization will come later in the series.
