Remove XFEATURE_CET_USER entry from dependency array as the entry doesn't
reflect true dependency between CET features and the user xstate bit.
Enable the bit in fpu_kernel_cfg.max_features when either SHSTK or IBT is
available.
Both user mode shadow stack and indirect branch tracking features depend
on XFEATURE_CET_USER bit in XSS to automatically save/restore user mode
xstate registers, i.e., IA32_U_CET and IA32_PL3_SSP whenever necessary.
Note, the issue, i.e., CPUID only enumerates IBT but no SHSTK is resulted
from CET KVM series which synthesizes guest CPUIDs based on userspace
settings,in real world the case is rare. In other words, the exitings
dependency check is correct when only user mode SHSTK is available.
