target/i386: Expose new feature bits in CPUID 8000_0021_EAX/EBX
Newer AMD CPUs support ERAPS (Enhanced Return Address Prediction Security)
feature that enables the auto-clear of RSB entries on a TLB flush, context
switches and VMEXITs. The number of default RSP entries is reflected in
RapSize.

Add the feature bit and feature word to support these features.

       Indicates support for enhanced return address predictor security.

CPUID_Fn80000021_EBX
Bits   Feature Description
31-24  Reserved
23:16  RapSize:
       Return Address Predictor size. RapSize x 8 is the minimum number
       of CALL instructions software needs to execute to flush the RAP.
15-00  MicrocodePatchSize. Read-only.
       Reports the size of the Microcode patch in 16-byte multiples.
       If 0, the size of the patch is at most 5568 (15C0h) bytes.
