Add a wrapper tdh_mem_page_demote() to invoke SEAMCALL TDH_MEM_PAGE_DEMOTE
to demote a huge leaf entry to a non-leaf entry in S-EPT. Currently, the
TDX module only supports demotion of a 2M huge leaf entry. After a
successful demotion, the old 2M huge leaf entry in S-EPT is replaced with a
non-leaf entry, linking to the newly-added page table page. The newly
linked page table page then contains 512 leaf entries, pointing to the 2M

2M or 4K?

guest private pages.
