Add defines for the number of external vectors and number of system
vectors instead of requiring the use of (FIRST_SYSTEM_VECTOR -
FIRST_EXTERNAL_VECTOR) and (NR_VECTORS - FIRST_SYSTEM_VECTOR)
respectively. Clean up the usage sites.

UV_BAU_MESSAGE is defined but not used anywhere in the kernel. Presumably
this is a stale vector number that can be reclaimed.

MCE_VECTOR is not an actual vector: #MC is an exception, not an interrupt
vector, and as such is correctly described as X86_TRAP_MC. MCE_VECTOR is
not used anywhere is the kernel.

Note that NMI_VECTOR *is* used; specifically it is the vector number
programmed into the APIC LVT when an NMI interrupt is configured. At
the moment it is always numerically identical to X86_TRAP_NMI, that is
not necessarily going to be the case indefinitely.

To pick up the changes from:

  70f094f4f01dc4d6 ("KVM: nVMX: Properly pad 'struct kvm_vmx_nested_state_hdr'")

That don't entail changes in tooling.

This silences these tools/perf build warnings:

  Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h' differs from latest version at 'arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h'
  diff -u tools/arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h
