x86/cpufeature: Enable new AVX-512 features

A few new AVX-512 instruction groups/features are added in cpufeatures.h
for enuermation: AVX512DQ, AVX512BW, and AVX512VL.

Clear the flags in fpu__xstate_clear_all_cpu_caps().

The specification for latest AVX-512 including the features can be found at:

  https://software.intel.com/sites/default/files/managed/07/b7/319433-023.pdf



Note, I didn't enable the flags in KVM. Hopefully the KVM guys can pick up
the flags and enable them in KVM.
