x86: sched: Provide arch implementations using aperf/mperf
APERF/MPERF support for cpu_power.
APERF/MPERF is arch defined to be a relative scale of work capacity
per logical cpu, this is assumed to include SMT and Turbo mode.
APERF/MPERF are specified to both reset to 0 when either counter
wraps, which is highly inconvenient, since that'll give a blimp
when that happens. The manual specifies writing 0 to the counters
after each read, but that's 1) too expensive, and 2) destroys the
possibility of sharing these counters with other users, so we live
with the blimp - the other existing user does too.
