KVM: SVM: Re-load current, not host, TSC_AUX on #VMEXIT from SEV-ES guest

Prior to running an SEV-ES guest, set TSC_AUX in the host save area to the
current value in hardware, as tracked by the user return infrastructure,
instead of always loading the host's desired value for the CPU.  If the
pCPU is also running a non-SEV-ES vCPU, loading the host's value on #VMEXIT
could clobber the other vCPU's value, e.g. if the SEV-ES vCPU preempted
the non-SEV-ES vCPU, in which case KVM expects the other vCPU's TSC_AUX
value to be resident in hardware.

Note, unlike TDX, which blindly _zeroes_ TSC_AUX on TD-Exit, SEV-ES CPUs
can load an arbitrary value.  Stuff the current value in the host save
area instead of refreshing the user return cache so that KVM doesn't need
to track whether or not the vCPU actually enterred the guest and thus
loaded TSC_AUX from the host save area.

Opportunistically tag tsc_aux_uret_slot as read-only after init to guard
against unexpected modifications, and to make it obvious that using the
variable in sev_es_prepare_switch_to_guest() is safe.
