Fuad Tabba 19a9a1ab5c KVM: Rename CONFIG_KVM_PRIVATE_MEM to CONFIG_KVM_GUEST_MEMFD
Rename the Kconfig option CONFIG_KVM_PRIVATE_MEM to
CONFIG_KVM_GUEST_MEMFD. The original name implied that the feature only
supported "private" memory. However, CONFIG_KVM_PRIVATE_MEM enables
guest_memfd in general, which is not exclusively for private memory.
Subsequent patches in this series will add guest_memfd support for
non-CoCo VMs, whose memory is not private.

Renaming the Kconfig option to CONFIG_KVM_GUEST_MEMFD more accurately
reflects its broader scope as the main Kconfig option for all
guest_memfd-backed memory. This provides clearer semantics for the
option and avoids confusion as new features are introduced.
