[PATCH v5 2/3] cpuid: Add a helper in scattered.c to return cpuid

Some sparse CPUID leafs are gathered in a fake leaf to save size of x86_capability array in current code, but sometimes, kernel or other modules (e.g. KVM cpuid enumeration) may need actual hardware leaf information. This patch adds a helper get_scattered_cpuid_leaf() to rebuild actual CPUID
