x86: Fix tst-cpu-features-cpuinfo on Ryzen 9 (BZ #27873)
AMD define different flags for IRPB, IBRS, and STIPBP [1], so new x86_64_cpu are added and IBRS_IBPB is only tested for Intel. The SSDB is also defined and implemented different on AMD [2], and also a new AMD_SSDB flag is added. It should map to the cpuinfo 'ssdb' on recent AMD cpus. It fixes tst-cpu-features-cpuinfo and tst-cpu-features-cpuinfo-static on recent AMD cpus. Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu on AMD Ryzen 9 5900X.
