1. check if VMX feature is enabled in the BIOS setting.
If disabled, board inspector will show error message.
2. check if Hyper-Threading is enabled in the BIOS setting.
If enabled, board inspector will show warning message.
3. check if VT-d is enabled in the BIOS setting.
If disabled, board inspector will show error message.
v2-->v3:
Use the class names instead of addresses, and invoke the rdmsr method
of each class.
v1-->v2:
1. For the Hyper-Threading BIOS check, update the log level to the warning.
2. For VMX invalid BIOS check, the XDS does the actual check,
the board inspector only collects information.

Add CPU capability checks.
If a feature is not supported on this processor, the board inspector
will show error message because it would impact ACRN’s ability
to function properly.
v3-->v4:
Update the error messages.
v2-->v3:
1. For VMX features, split each feature as a separate property, capability
checks in XML schema will then check all those features.
2. Use the class names instead of addresses, and invoke the rdmsr method
of each class.
v1-->v2:
1. Define each register as a class inheriting the `MSR` class defined
in platformbase.py, and define each bit as fields of that class.
2. The board inspector simply collects the CPU capability and attribute,
and the XSD does the actual check

category based on different log levels:
1) If the board inspector show CRITICAL error messages, it means that the
board inspector tool exit instantly and generate no file.
2) If the board inspector show ERROR messages, it means that the board
inspector will generate the board XML file successfully, but several conditions
may result in ACRN build or boot failure cannot continue execution due to the error.
3) If the board inspector show WARNING messages, this means that the board inspector
generate the board XML file successfully, but this board XML file is lack of
some feature which could still boot ACRN but loss some features.
4) If the board inspector show INFO messages, this means that board inspector
printed out some normal information.
5) If the board inspector show DEBUG messages, this means that it is used to
debug board inspector workflow.
v1->v2
1. Keep the assertions or exceptions under the acpiparser, inspectorlib
and smbiosparser directory.
2. Exit after all check_deps() completes instead of any unsatisfied dep
is identified.
3. As Amy's advice, Replace the message "{board_xml} saved successfully" with
the message "SUCCESS: Board configuration file <file name> generated successfully
and saved to <path>."
To do:
Print all messages using the colored font.

Bring all the cores up in the beginning of the board_inspector.py
It is expected to run board_inspector in clean and native environment.
To resolve the issue that user may run other jobs which puts cores
offline, bringing up all cores online so tool can run cpuid to extract
all available cores information.

This patch adds a parser of CPU identification information reported by the
CPUID instruction.
The framework is based on the CPUID parsing facilities in
BITS (https://biosbits.org/), but with the following changes.
1. The CPUID data is fetched by executing the `cpuid` utility, rather than
executing the `cpuid` instruction. This avoids introducing any
additional library or Python/C extension and gets a CPUID leaf on all
physical cores in one shot.
2. Parsers of CPUID leaves 0x10, 0x1A and 0x1F are added. New fields in
existing leaves are also added.
3. A wrapper function, named `parse_cpuid`, is added as the single API that
allows other modules to get an arbitrary CPUID leaf or subleaf.
