Subject: [PATCH Resend 6/8] tools/power x86_energy_perf_policy: remove the invalid feature options for AMD processors

EPB feature is not supported by AMD CPU, remove the unsupported options
to advoid confusion for the failure result when using the parameters.

Here is the new help output with  below command.
$ sudo ./x86_energy_perf_policy -h

/x86_energy_perf_policy [options] [scope][field value]
scope: --cpu cpu-list [--hwp-use-pkg #] | --pkg pkg-list
field: --all | --hwp-epp | --hwp-min | --hwp-max | --hwp-desired
other: --hwp-enable | --turbo-enable (0 | 1) | --help | --force
value: ( # | "normal" | "performance" | "balance-performance" |
"balance-power"| "power")
--hwp-window usec
/x86_energy_perf_policy: [-c cpu] [-v] (-r | policy-value )
