Emulate MSR_IA32_CORE_CAPABILITIES in software and unconditionally
advertise its support to userspace. Like MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES, it
is a feature-enumerating MSR and can be fully emulated regardless of
hardware support. Existence of CORE_CAPABILITIES is enumerated via
CPUID.(EAX=7H,ECX=0):EDX[30].
Note, support for individual features enumerated via CORE_CAPABILITIES,
e.g., split lock detection, will be added in future patches.
