WHvCapabilityCodeProcessorFeaturesBanks and the matching partition
property are implemented starting from Windows 10 version 20H1.

On earlier Windows 10 releases, the capability query returns
WHV_E_UNKNOWN_CAPABILITY (0x80370300) and whpx_accel_init()
aborts with -ENOSPC, reported to the user as "failed to initialize
whpx: No space left on device". This regressed older Windows 10
releases in 8b87283ce4 ("whpx: i386: enable all supported host features").

Fall back to the original single-bank WHvCapabilityCodeProcessorFeatures
on legacy hosts and skip the corresponding SetPartitionProperty, which
restores the pre-8b87283ce4 behaviour there.

Reported-on: Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 17763, Intel i7-6700

[Editing patch for reflecting the availability of this API, which is
available in Windows 10 version 2004 onwards]
