KVM: x86: Advertise AVX10.2 CPUID to userspace
Bump up the maximum supported AVX10 version and enumerate AVX10.2 to userspace when it's supported by the host. Intel AVX10 Version 2 (Intel AVX10.2) includes a suite of new instructions delivering new AI features and performance, accelerated media processing, expanded Web Assembly, and Cryptography support, along with enhancements to existing legacy instructions for completeness and efficiency, and it is enumerated as version 2 in CPUID 0x24.0x0.EBX[bits 0-7] [1]. AVX10.2 has no current kernel usage and requires no additional host kernel enabling work (based on AVX10.1 support) and provides no new VMX controls [2]. Moreover, since AVX10.2 is the superset of AVX10.1, there's no need to worry about AVX10.1 and AVX10.2 compatibility issues in KVM. Therefore, it's safe to advertise AVX10.2 version to userspace directly if host supports AVX10.2. [1]: Intel Advanced Vector Extensions 10.2 Architecture Specification (rev 5.0). [2]: Note: Since AVX10.2 spec (rev 4.0), it has been declared "AVX10/512 will be used in all Intel products, supporting vector lengths of 128, 256, and 512 in all product lines", and the VMX support (in earlier revisions) for AVX10/256 guest on AVX10/512 host has been dropped.
