Subject: [PATCH v3 01/11] x86/irq: Add enumeration of NMI source reporting CPU feature

The lack of a mechanism to pinpoint the origins of Non-Maskable Interrupts
(NMIs) necessitates that the NMI vector 2 handler consults each NMI source
handler individually. This approach leads to inefficiencies, delays, and
the occurrence of unnecessary NMIs, thereby also constraining the potential
applications of NMIs.

A new CPU feature, known as NMI source reporting, has been introduced as
part of the Flexible Return and Event Delivery (FRED) spec. This feature
enables the NMI vector 2 handler to directly obtain information about the
NMI source from the FRED event data.

The functionality of NMI source reporting is tied to the FRED. Although it
is enumerated by a unique CPUID feature bit, it cannot be turned off
independently once FRED is activated.

v3: Removed CONFIG_X86_NMI_SOURCE (Li Xin, HPA, Sohil)
v2: Removed NMI source from static CPU ID dependency table (HPA)
