[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v2 04/11] vfio: Move storage of allow_unsafe_interrupts to vfio_main.c

This legacy module knob has become uAPI, when set on the vfio_iommu_type1
it disables some security protections in the iommu drivers. Move the
storage for this knob to vfio_main.c so that iommufd can access it too.

The may need enhancing as we learn more about how necessary
allow_unsafe_interrupts is in the current state of the world. If vfio
container is disabled then this option will not be available to the user.
