vfio/powerpc/spapr_tce: Enforce IOMMU type compatibility check
The existing SPAPR TCE driver advertises both VFIO_SPAPR_TCE_IOMMU and VFIO_SPAPR_TCE_v2_IOMMU types to the userspace and the userspace usually picks the v2. Normally the userspace would create a container, attach an IOMMU group to it and only then set the IOMMU type (which would normally be v2). However a specific IOMMU group may not support v2, in other words it may not implement set_window/unset_window/take_ownership/ release_ownership and such a group should not be attached to a v2 container. This adds extra checks that a new group can do what the selected IOMMU type suggests. The userspace can then test the return value from ioctl(VFIO_SET_IOMMU, VFIO_SPAPR_TCE_v2_IOMMU) and try VFIO_SPAPR_TCE_IOMMU.
