x86/spec_ctrl: Express Xen's choice of MSR_SPEC_CTRL value as a variable
At the moment, we have two different encodings of Xen's MSR_SPEC_CTRL value,
which is a side effect of how the Spectre series developed. One encoding is
via an alias with the bottom bit of bti_ist_info, and can encode IBRS or not,
but not other configurations such as STIBP.
Break Xen's value out into a separate variable (in the top of stack block for
XPTI reasons) and use this instead of bti_ist_info in the IST path.
