Colin Percival d1ca8cc638 x86: Add MPTABLE_LINUX_BUG_COMPAT option
Linux has two bugs in its handling of the x86 MP table:
1. It assumes that there is always 640 kB of base memory, and looks for
the MP table in the top kB of this even if the memory map indicates
that memory location does not exist.
2. It ignores that entry_count field and instead iterates through the
MP table by scanning until it runs out of bytes in the table.

The Firecracker VM (and probably other related VMs) relies on both of
these bugs.  With the MPTABLE_LINUX_BUG_COMPAT option, we search for
the MP table at address 639k even if that isn't in the memory map; and
replace a zeroed entry_count with a value computed from scanning the
table until we run out of table bytes.
