virtualization facts: check /dev/kvm as a fallback (#70829)

Change:
- On Linux, there are situations where a host might be a KVM host but
  not have the kernel module enabled (it might be compiled in instead).
  In these cases, /dev/kvm will still exist, and rather than reporting
  NA, we should report that the host is a KVM host.

Test Plan:
- Local
