x86/microcode: Rework microcode loading

Yeah, I know, I know, this is a huuge patch and reviewing it is hard.

Sorry but this is the only way I could think of in which I can rewrite
the microcode patches loading procedure without breaking (knowingly) the
driver.

So maybe this patch is easier to review if one looks at the files after
the patch has been applied instead at the diff. Because then it becomes
pretty obvious:

* The BSP-loading path - load_ucode_bsp() is working independently from
  the AP path now and it doesn't save any pointers or patches anymore -
  it solely parses the builtin or initrd microcode and applies the patch.
  That's it.

This fixes the CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MEMORY offset fun more solidly.

* The AP-loading path - load_ucode_ap() then goes and scans
  builtin/initrd *again* for the microcode patches but it caches them this
  time so that we don't have to do that scan on each AP but only once.

This simplifies the code considerably.

Then, when we save the microcode from the initrd/builtin, we go and
add the relevant patches to our own cache. The AMD side did do that
and now the Intel side does it too. So no more pointer copying and
blabla, we save the microcode patches ourselves and are independent from
initrd/builtin.

This whole conversion gives us other benefits like unifying the
initrd parsing into a single function: find_microcode_in_initrd() is
used by both.

The diffstat speaks for itself: 456 insertions(+), 695 deletions(-)
