[PATCH v3 07/15] x86/alternative: support "not feature" and ALTERNATIVE_TERNARY



Instead of only supporting to modify instructions when a specific
feature is set, support doing so for the case a feature is not set.

As today a feature is specified using a 16 bit quantity and the highest
feature number in use is around 600, using a negated feature number for
specifying the inverted case seems to be appropriate.

  ALTERNATIVE "default_instr", "patched_instr", ~FEATURE_NR

will start with "default_instr" and patch that with "patched_instr" in
case FEATURE_NR is not set.

Using that add ALTERNATIVE_TERNARY:

  ALTERNATIVE_TERNARY "default_instr", FEATURE_NR,
                      "feature_on_instr", "feature_off_instr"

which will start with "default_instr" and at patch time will, depending
on FEATURE_NR being set or not, patch that with either
"feature_on_instr" or "feature_off_instr".
