Address performance issues caused by a vector being reused by a
non-IOAPIC source.

commit 0fc5a36dd6b3
("KVM: x86: ioapic: Fix level-triggered EOI and IOAPIC reconfigure race")
addressed the issues related to EOI and IOAPIC reconfiguration races.
However, it has introduced some performance concerns:

Configuring IOAPIC interrupts while an interrupt request (IRQ) is
already in service can unintentionally trigger a VM exit for other
interrupts that normally do not require one, due to the settings of
`ioapic_handled_vectors`. If the IOAPIC is not reconfigured during
runtime, this issue persists, continuing to adversely affect
performance.

Simple Fix Proposal:
A straightforward solution is to record the vector that is pending at
the time of injection. Then, upon the next guest exit, clean up the
ioapic_handled_vectors corresponding to the vector number that was
pending. This ensures that interrupts are properly handled and prevents
performance issues.
