cpucontrol(8): De-duplicate common update logic

Every µcode-updater must open the cpucontrol devfs node RDWR, open a
firmware file, validate the FW file has a positive length, mmap it, etc.
De-duplicate that identical logic between every individual platform.

Also, constify references to the readonly-mapped firmware files while here.

various: general adoption of SPDX licensing ID tags.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.

No functional change intended.

cpucontrol: use CPUCTL_UPDATE ioctl on correct file descriptor

I guess that means that microcode update has never worked for AMD CPUs.
Please also note that only older AMD CPUs and micrcode file format are
supported anyway (pre 10h family).

Remove dead assignments, we overwrite the variable almost immediately.

- Add cpuctl(4) pseudo-device driver to provide access to some low-level
features of CPUs like reading/writing machine-specific registers,
retrieving cpuid data, and updating microcode.
- Add cpucontrol(8) utility, that provides userland access to
the features of cpuctl(4).
- Add subsequent manpages.

The cpuctl(4) device operates as follows. The pseudo-device node cpuctlX
is created for each cpu present in the systems. The pseudo-device minor
number corresponds to the cpu number in the system. The cpuctl(4) pseudo-
device allows a number of ioctl to be preformed, namely RDMSR/WRMSR/CPUID
and UPDATE. The first pair alows the caller to read/write machine-specific
registers from the correspondent CPU. cpuid data could be retrieved using
the CPUID call, and microcode updates are applied via UPDATE.

The permissions are inforced based on the pseudo-device file permissions.
RDMSR/CPUID will be allowed when the caller has read access to the device
node, while WRMSR/UPDATE will be granted only when the node is opened
for writing. There're also a number of priv(9) checks.

The cpucontrol(8) utility is intened to provide userland access to
the cpuctl(4) device features. The utility also allows one to apply
cpu microcode updates.

Currently only Intel and AMD cpus are supported and were tested.
