perf/core: Rework guest callbacks to prepare for static_call support

Browse source 
To prepare for using static_calls to optimize perf's guest callbacks,
replace ->is_in_guest and ->is_user_mode with a new multiplexed hook
->state, tweak ->handle_intel_pt_intr to play nice with being called when
there is no active guest, and drop "guest" from ->get_guest_ip.

Return '0' from ->state and ->handle_intel_pt_intr to indicate "not in
guest" so that DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_RET0 can be used to define the static
calls, i.e. no callback == !guest.

[sean: extracted from static_call patch, fixed get_ip() bug, wrote changelog]
