[Intel-gfx] [RFCv2 11/14] drm/i915: Introduce execlist context status change notification

This patch introduces an approach for clients to aware the execlist context
status change.

For a GVT context, GVT-g kernel device model uses it as the "shadow
context", its contents will be copied back to guest after the context is
idle. So GVT-g kernel device model has to know the status of the execlist
context, also it will switch the render registers when the context is
schedued-in/out.

This function is configurable as a parameter in the context creation
service. Currently, Only GVT-g will create the "status-change-notification"
enabled GEM context.
