hwpmc: Disable AMD PMCs if in an unsupported VM
AMD does not have a CPUID bit to indicate the lack of K8 PMCs. If all
other PMC features are not present we should test an event selector to
see if it stores and returns a value. If the VM is implemented
correctly, this should result in a #GP on the initial wrmsr_safe. Bhyve
and a few other VMs ignore writes, so I got one step further and test
that it retains the OS and USR bits.
Tested on Zen 5 native and a Zen 5 Bhyve virtual machine. This code
should not run on any recent hardware, except in a VM, as it checks that
the core counter extension is missing.
