xen: implement Xen write_msr operation
64-bit uses MSRs for important things like the base for fs and
gs-prefixed addresses. It's more efficient to use a hypercall to
update these, rather than go via the trap and emulate path.
Other MSR writes are just passed through; in an unprivileged domain
they do nothing, but it might be useful later.
