KVM: Harden and prepare for modifying existing guest_memfd memslots
Unbind guest_memfd memslots if KVM commits a MOVE or FLAGS_ONLY memslot change to harden against use-after-free, and to prepare for eventually supporting dirty logging on guest_memfd memslots, at which point FLAGS_ONLY changes will be expected/supported. Add two separate WARNs, once to yell if a guest_memfd memslot is moved (which KVM is never expected to allow/support), and again if the unbind() is triggered, to help detect uAPI goofs prior to deliberately allowing FLAGS_ONLY changes.
