i386: Add new CPU model SapphireRapids

The new CPU model mostly inherits features from Icelake-Server, while
adding new features:
 - AMX (Advance Matrix eXtensions)
 - Bus Lock Debug Exception
and new instructions:
 - AVX VNNI (Vector Neural Network Instruction):
    - VPDPBUS: Multiply and Add Unsigned and Signed Bytes
    - VPDPBUSDS: Multiply and Add Unsigned and Signed Bytes with Saturation
    - VPDPWSSD: Multiply and Add Signed Word Integers
    - VPDPWSSDS: Multiply and Add Signed Integers with Saturation
 - FP16: Replicates existing AVX512 computational SP (FP32) instructions
   using FP16 instead of FP32 for ~2X performance gain
 - SERIALIZE: Provide software with a simple way to force the processor to
   complete all modifications, faster, allowed in all privilege levels and
   not causing an unconditional VM exit
 - TSX Suspend Load Address Tracking: Allows programmers to choose which
   memory accesses do not need to be tracked in the TSX read set
 - AVX512_BF16: Vector Neural Network Instructions supporting BFLOAT16
   inputs and conversion instructions from IEEE single precision
 - fast zero-length MOVSB (KVM doesn't support yet)
 - fast short STOSB (KVM doesn't support yet)
 - fast short CMPSB, SCASB (KVM doesn't support yet)

Features that may be added in future versions:
 - CET (virtualization support hasn't been merged)
