Description
Move all HVCI/HEKI functions in the LVBS platform to the LVBS runner. This would let us easily port LVBS/LiteBox to other kernel platforms. I confirmed that this is doable with this PoC branch (https://github.com/microsoft/litebox/tree/sanghle/lvbs/refactoring). I'll make a PR once LVBS/OP-TEE modules become stable.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the refactoring PoC branch and comparing where the HVCI/HEKI functions currently live with the LVBS runner. Confirm the intended boundary for the LVBS/OP-TEE modules, then consider the refactor complete when those functions are owned by the runner and LVBS/LiteBox can be ported to other kernel platforms.
