i386: Add missing cpu feature bits in EPYC model


Adds the following missing CPUID bits:
perfctr-core : core performance counter extensions support. Enables the VM
               to use extended performance counter support. It enables six
               programmable counters instead of 4 counters.
clzero       : instruction zeroes out the 64 byte cache line specified in RAX.
xsaveerptr   : XSAVE, XSAVE, FXSAVEOPT, XSAVEC, XSAVES always save error
               pointers and FXRSTOR, XRSTOR, XRSTORS always restore error
               pointers.
ibpb         : Indirect Branch Prediction Barrie.
xsaves       : XSAVES, XRSTORS and IA32_XSS supported.

Depends on following kernel commits:
40bc47b08b6e ("kvm: x86: Enumerate support for CLZERO instruction")
504ce1954fba ("KVM: x86: Expose XSAVEERPTR to the guest")
52297436199d ("kvm: svm: Update svm_xsaves_supported")

These new features will be added in EPYC-v3. The -cpu help output after the change.
x86 EPYC-v1               AMD EPYC Processor
x86 EPYC-v2               AMD EPYC Processor (with IBPB)
x86 EPYC-v3               AMD EPYC Processor
