x86/cpufeatures: Add the CPU feature bit for FRED



Any FRED enabled CPU will always have the following features as its
baseline:

  1) LKGS, load attributes of the GS segment but the base address into
     the IA32_KERNEL_GS_BASE MSR instead of the GS segment’s descriptor
     cache.

  2) WRMSRNS, non-serializing WRMSR for faster MSR writes.
