Non-x86 archs does not have a 'microcode' version like x86. This is
covered already inside the function - just return 0 if no microcode
is found. Regardless of that, a read of /proc/cpuinfo is always made.
Each read will invoke the kernel to fill in the CPU details every time.
Now let's consider a non-x86 host, like a Power 9 server with 128 CPUs.
Each /proc/cpuinfo read will need to fetch data for each CPU and it
won't even matter because we know beforehand that PowerPC chips don't
have microcode information.
We can do better for non-x86 hosts by skipping this process entirely.

Both accept a NULL value gracefully and virStringFreeList
does not zero the pointer afterwards, so a straight replace
is safe.

- Add a check for asm/hwcap.h header presence,
- Add a check for getauxval() function that is used
on Linux, and for elf_aux_info() which is a FreeBSD
equivalent.

CPU models defined in the cpu_map can use signature/@stepping attribute
to match a limited set of stepping numbers. The value is a bitmap for
bits 0..15 each corresponding to a single stepping value. For example,
stepping='4-6,9' will match 4, 5, 6, and 9. Omitting the attribute is
equivalent to stepping='0-15'.
