Subject: [PATCH v3 2/8] mm: Introduce a function to check for confidential computing features

In prep for other confidential computing technologies, introduce a generic
helper function, cc_platform_has(), that can be used to check for specific
active confidential computing attributes, like memory encryption. This is
intended to eliminate having to add multiple technology-specific checks to
the code (e.g. if (sev_active() || tdx_active())).
