target/riscv: Add M-mode virtual interrupt and IRQ filtering support.

This change adds support for inserting virtual interrupts from M-mode
into S-mode using mvien and mvip csrs. IRQ filtering is a use case of
this change, i-e M-mode can stop delegating an interrupt to S-mode and
instead enable it in MIE and receive those interrupts in M-mode and then
selectively inject the interrupt using mvien and mvip.

Also, the spec doesn't mandate the interrupt to be actually supported
in hardware. Which allows M-mode to assert virtual interrupts to S-mode
that have no connection to any real interrupt events.

This is defined as part of the AIA specification [0], "5.3 Interrupt
filtering and virtual interrupts for supervisor level".
