The output of cpuid depends on the logical processor id the process
runs on, as reflected by the "local apic id" present in cpuid leaves
(eax=1,ebx=0), (eax=11,ebx=0), and (eax=11,ebx=1). This produces
arbitrary changes in the output files that complicate comparisons.
This patch masks the occurences of the local apic id with 0x00, so
that two consecutive runs of "./cpu-data.py gather" produce identical
results.

It is now doing way more than gathering the CPU data from a host as the

Due to missing pdpe1gb support in the host CPU data, the CPU is still
incorrectly detected as Westmere-IBRS for host capabilities because we
don't have the option to disable features included in the base model
there.

The feature is filtered by KVM and never automatically enabled. So even
though QEMU definition of EPYC-Rome contains this feature, the guest
won't see it. Also domain capabilities will show it as disabled for KVM
domains. Thus the feature should not really be included in our
definition of EPYC-Rome.
