[libvirt PATCH 08/12] tools: load CPU count and CPU SKU from libvirt

When validating a SEV-ES guest, we need to know the CPU count and VMSA
state. We can get the CPU count directly from libvirt's guest info. The
VMSA state can be constructed automatically if we query the CPU SKU from
host capabilities XML. Neither of these is secure, however, so this
behaviour is restricted.
