x86/tboot: avoid recursive fault in early boot panic with tboot

If panic is called before init_idle_domain on a tboot-launched system,
then Xen recursively faults in write_ptbase as seen below.

idle_vcpu[0] is still poisoned with INVALID_VCPU, so write_ptbase faults
dereferencing the pointer.  This fault calls panic and recurses through
the same code path.

If tboot_shutdown is called while idle_vcpu[0] == INVALID_VCPU, then we
are still operating with the initial page tables.  Therefore changing
page tables with write_ptbase is unnecessary.

An easy way to reproduce this is to use tboot to launch an XSM-enabled
Xen without an XSM policy.
