x86/fpu: Add a helper to prepare AMX state for low-power CPU idle

When a CPU enters an idle state, a non-initialized AMX register state may
be the cause of preventing a deeper low-power state. Other extended
register states whether initialized or not do not impact the CPU idle
state.

The new helper can ensure the AMX state is initialized before the CPU is
idle, and it will be used by the intel idle driver.

Check the AMX_TILE feature bit before using XGETBV1 as a chain of
dependencies was established via cpuid_deps[]: AMX->XFD->XGETBV1.
