x86, microcode: Verify the family before dispatching microcode patching 



For each CPU vendor that implements CPU microcode patching, there will
be a minimum family for which this is implemented.  Verify this
minimum level of support.

This can be done in the dispatch function or early in the application
functions.  Doing the latter turned out to be somewhat awkward because
of the ineviable split between the BSP and the AP paths, and rather
than pushing deep into the application functions, do this in
the dispatch function.
