KVM: arm64: Enable nested for GICv5 host with FEAT_GCIE_LEGACY

Extend the NV check to pass for a GICv5 host that has
FEAT_GCIE_LEGACY. The has_gcie_v3_compat flag is only set on GICv5
hosts (that explicitly support FEAT_GCIE_LEGACY), and hence the
explicit check for a VGIC_V5 is omitted.

As of this change, vGICv3-based VMs can run with nested on a
compatible GICv5 host.
