cpu: Define attack vectors

Define 4 new attack vectors that are used for controlling CPU speculation
mitigations.  These may be individually disabled as part of the
mitigations= command line.  Attack vector controls are combined with global
options like 'auto' or 'auto,nosmt' like 'mitigations=auto,no_user_kernel'.
The global options come first in the mitigations= string.

Cross-thread mitigations can either remain enabled fully, including
potentially disabling SMT ('auto,nosmt'), remain enabled except for
disabling SMT ('auto'), or entirely disabled through the new
'no_cross_thread' attack vector option.

The default settings for these attack vectors are consistent with existing
kernel defaults, other than the automatic disabling of VM-based attack
vectors if KVM support is not present.
