x86, cpu: Add AMD core boosting feature flag to /proc/cpuinfo

By semi-popular demand, this adds the Core Performance Boost feature flag to /proc/cpuinfo. Possible use case for this is userspace tools like cpufreq-aperf, for example, so that they don't have to jump through hoops of accessing "/dev/cpu/%d/cpuid" in order to check for CPB hw support, or call cpuid from userspace.
