Intel VT-x classifies events into eight different types, which is
inherited by FRED for event identification. As such, event type
becomes a common x86 concept, and should be defined in a common x86
header.

Add event type macros to <asm/trapnr.h>, and use it in <asm/vmx.h>.

nit: This turned into INTO (Oh) rather than INT0( zero) in v11
