vfio/pci: Clarify the MSI states

The MSI and MSI-X implementations is a bit complex, because it keeps
track of capability and vector states as seen by both the guest and the
host. Add a few comments about those states and rename them to something
more accurate.

What's called phys_state at the moment represents the software state
maintained by VFIO and kvmtool, rather than the physical MSI capability,
so host_state is more correct. To be consistent, rename virt_state to
guest_state as well.
