The offline tool use a utility libary and use "common" to named it, this
name conflict with some customer's local library, so we rename it to a
better and clear name.

This patch is to generates frequency limits for each CPU, as a set of
data structure in hypervisor .c code.
With the frequency limits data, the hypervisor performance manager does
not have to deal with the CPU/board info. It just choose the
highest/lowest/guaranteed performance level and performance/nominal
p-state, and use them to construct HWP_REQUEST/PERF_CTL reg value.
How are frequency limits decided:
- For CPUs in standard VMs, frequency limits are just decided by
CPU/board info.
- For CPUs assigned to RTVMs, we want certainty in latency, so just
set its frequency to nominal/guaranteed by letting highest=lowest.
- In some cases, CPUs are sharing frequency on hardware level
(e.g. ADL e-cores in group of 4). This is described as _PSD in ACPI
spec, or 'frequency domain' in Linux cpufreq driver. Thoese CPUs'
frequency are linked together. If one of them are running RTVM,
all other CPUs in the domain should be set to the same frequency.
