Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * The detection of Microsoft Hyper-V VMs is done by cpuid currently,
  however there is no cpuid on ARM64. And since ARM64 is now a supported
  architecture for Microsoft Hyper-V guests[0], then introduce a more
  generic way to detect whether a guest is running as a Hyper-V guest: check 
  if /sys/class/dmi/id/product_version starts with "Hyper-V".

   * This bug has already been fixed upstream[1][2]

  [Test Plan]

   * While changes have been made in the kernel for ARM64 on Hyper-V,
  there is no way to start an ARM64 VM on Hyper-V at the moment. Thus we
  just want to make sure no regression is introduced.

   * start an Hyper-V amd64 VM and make sure "systemd-detect-virt" still
  return MSFT (should still rely on cpuid here)

  [Where problems could occur]

   * The main risk is for the system to detect Hyper-V virt erroneously.
  An issue was reported upstream after the first commit was merged[3].
  For this reason, systemd is now looking for "Hyper-V" (in
  /sys/class/dmi/id/product_version) and not "Microsoft" (in
  /sys/class/dmi/id/bios_vendor)

   * This change might also break virt detection on hyper-v AMD64.
  That's why we need testing. However, AMD64 virt detection should still
  rely on cpuid instead of DMI as cpuid takes priority over DMI.
