kvm: powerpc: book3s: Add a new config variable CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_HV_POSSIBLE
This help ups to select the relevant code in the kernel code
when we later move HV and PR bits as seperate modules. The patch
also makes the config options for PR KVM selectable

+ This is not as fast as using hypervisor mode, but works on

+ processor, including emulating 32-bit processors on a 64-bit
+ host.
