Subject: [PATCH v6 2/9] x86/topology: Provide topology_num_packages()

Returns number of cpu packages discovered.

This information is needed to determine the size of the platform and
decide if the Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0 (ITMT) feature
should be turned on by default.  The ITMT feature is more effective on
single socket client like system that uses small number of cores most
of the time.
