PM: hibernate: Honour ACPI hardware signature by default for virtual guests



The ACPI specification says that OSPM should refuse to restore from
hibernate if the hardware signature changes, and should boot from
scratch. However, real BIOSes often vary the hardware signature in cases
where we *do* want to resume from hibernate, so Linux doesn't follow the
spec by default.

However, in a virtual environment there's no reason for the VMM to vary
the hardware signature *unless* it wants to trigger a clean reboot as
defined by the ACPI spec. So enable the check by default if a hypervisor
is detected.
