numa: move source of default CPUs to NUMA node mapping into boards
Originally CPU threads were by default assigned in
round-robin fashion. However it was causing issues in
guest since CPU threads from the same socket/core could
be placed on different NUMA nodes.
Commit fb43b73b (pc: fix default VCPU to NUMA node mapping)
fixed it by grouping threads within a socket on the same node
introducing cpu_index_to_socket_id() callback and commit
20bb648d (spapr: Fix default NUMA node allocation for threads)
reused callback to fix similar issues for SPAPR machine
even though socket doesn't make much sense there.

As result QEMU ended up having 3 default distribution rules
used by 3 targets /virt-arm, spapr, pc/.

In effort of moving NUMA mapping for CPUs into possible_cpus,
generalize default mapping in numa.c by making boards decide
on default mapping and let them explicitly tell generic
numa code to which node a CPU thread belongs to by replacing
cpu_index_to_socket_id() with @cpu_index_to_instance_props()
which provides default node_id assigned by board to specified
cpu_index.
