KVM: x86: Allow to update cached values in kvm_user_return_msrs w/o wrmsr

Several MSRs are constant and only used in userspace(ring 3).  But VMs may
have different values.  KVM uses kvm_set_user_return_msr() to switch to
guest's values and leverages user return notifier to restore them when the
kernel is to return to userspace.  To eliminate unnecessary wrmsr, KVM also
caches the value it wrote to an MSR last time.

TDX module unconditionally resets some of these MSRs to architectural INIT
state on TD exit.  It makes the cached values in kvm_user_return_msrs are
inconsistent with values in hardware.  This inconsistency needs to be
fixed.  Otherwise, it may mislead kvm_on_user_return() to skip restoring
some MSRs to the host's values.  kvm_set_user_return_msr() can help correct
this case, but it is not optimal as it always does a wrmsr.  So, introduce
a variation of kvm_set_user_return_msr() to update cached values and skip
that wrmsr.
