KVM: x86: Forbid VMM to set SYNIC/STIMER MSRs when SynIC wasn't activated

commit 438ced23aa25087ab85000b65c781a1bd6ac1727 upstream.

Setting non-zero values to SYNIC/STIMER MSRs activates certain features,
this should not happen when KVM_CAP_HYPERV_SYNIC{,2} was not activated.

Note, it would've been better to forbid writing anything to SYNIC/STIMER
MSRs, including zeroes, however, at least QEMU tries clearing
HV_X64_MSR_STIMER0_CONFIG without SynIC. HV_X64_MSR_EOM MSR is somewhat
'special' as writing zero there triggers an action, this also should not
happen when SynIC wasn't activated.
