In order to give guests a hint at whether their vCPU-s are currently
scheduled (so they can e.g. adapt their behavior in spin loops), update
the run state area (if registered) also when de-scheduling a vCPU.
Also fix an oversight in the compat mode implementation of
VCPUOP_register_runstate_memory_area.
Please also consider for the 3.4 and 3.3 branches.
