I've updated to gdb related tests to work on Windows. This does require it to be installed on the runner vm's which is in progress. Will mark ready for review once that is complete |

This pull request adds support for reading and writing XMM and MXCSR registers in the GDB debug interface for all supported hypervisors (KVM, MSHV, and WHVP). It introduces new fields to the register structures to hold these values and implements the necessary logic to fetch and store them using each hypervisor's API.
Register structure updates:
xmm: [u128; 16]
andmxcsr: u32
fields to theX86_64Regs
struct to store XMM registers and MXCSR control state.Todo:
