It turns out that all the Intel processors enumerating the support of
Intel AVX10 support all vector widths. It's documented in the latest
SDM, vol 1, Chapter 16 "programming with Intel AVX10".

(Note that AVX10.1 spec stops update since AVX10 is subsumed into SDM
  while AVX10.2 spec stays update for the future extension of AVX10)

Now SDM [1] marks the bit 16-18 of CPUID.0x24_0.EBX as reserved and they
are reserved at 1. The purpose of Intel is to remove the semantic of
vector length enumeration from these bits since all the 128/256/512 bit
length are supported and no need for enumeration. But Intel has to keep
them reserved at 1 to make it compatible with the software written based
on earlier avx10 spec that checks the bits to query of the support of each
vector length.

For QEMU, it makes no sense to allow the configurability of the bits
anymore. Remove the leaf FEAT_24_0_EBX and related stuff. Just hardcore
the bits to all 1 when AVX10 is exposed to guest, to comply with the SDM
and stop trying to associate them with the enumeration of vector length.

changes in v2:
  - refine the commit message to reference update from SDM instead of
    AVX10 spec;
  - call out explicitly the purpose of disassociating the enumeration of
    vector length from the CPUID bits.
