KVM: x86/mmu: Zap any compound page when collapsing sptes

Zap any compound page, e.g. THP or HugeTLB pages, when zapping sptes
that can potentially be converted to huge sptes after disabling dirty
logging on the associated memslot. Note, this approach could result in
false positives, e.g. if a random compound page is mapped into the
guest, but mapping non-huge compound pages into the guest is far from
the norm, and toggling dirty logging is not a frequent operation.
