xen/grant-table: add gnttab_try_end_foreign_access()
Add a new grant table function gnttab_try_end_foreign_access(), which will remove and free a grant if it is not in use. Its main use case is to either free a grant if it is no longer in use, or to take some other action if it is still in use. This other action can be an error exit, or (e.g. in the case of blkfront persistent grant feature) some special handling. This is CVE-2022-23036, CVE-2022-23038 / part of XSA-396.
