arm64: Rename the VHE switch to "finalise_el2"
as we are about to perform a lot more in 'mutate_to_vhe' than
we currently do, this function really becomes the point where
we finalise the basic EL2 configuration.

Reflect this into the code by renaming a bunch of things:
- HVC_VHE_RESTART -> HVC_FINALISE_EL2
- switch_to_vhe --> finalise_el2
- mutate_to_vhe -> __finalise_el2

No functional changes.

 Any other value of r0/x0 triggers a hypervisor-specific handling,
 which is not documented here.
