Shutdown requests are normally hardware dependent.
By extending pvpanic to also handle shutdown requests, guests can
submit such requests with an easily implementable and cross-platform
mechanism.
The event was added to the specification in qemu commit
73279cecca03 ("docs/specs/pvpanic: document shutdown event").

The macros are easier to read.

Some users prefer kdump tools to generate guest kernel dumpfile,
at the same time, need a out-of-band kernel panic event.
Currently if booting guest kernel with 'crash_kexec_post_notifiers',
QEMU will receive PVPANIC_PANICKED event and stop VM. If booting
guest kernel without 'crash_kexec_post_notifiers', guest will not
call notifier chain.
Add PVPANIC_CRASH_LOADED bit for pvpanic event, it means that guest
kernel actually hit a kernel panic, but the guest kernel wants to
handle by itself.

Some processes outside of the kernel(Ex, QEMU) should know what the
value really is for, so move the bit definition to a uapi file.
