b6734c35af x86: add NOPL as a synthetic CPU feature bit
The long noops ("NOPL") are supposed to be detected by family >= 6.
Unfortunately, several non-Intel x86 implementations, both hardware
and software, don't obey this dictum.  Instead, probe for NOPL
directly by executing a NOPL instruction and see if we get #UD.

fa1408e4df x86: unify CPU feature string names
Move the CPU feature string names to a separate file (common to 32
and 64 bits); additionally, make <asm/cpufeature.h> includable by host
code in preparation for including the CPU feature strings in the boot
code.
