Add support for generating Virtualization feature names in capflags.c and use the resulting x86_virt_flags to print the virt flags in /proc/cpuinfo.
Currently, it is difficult to check if a feature is supported in _KVM_. Manually querying cpuid to know whether the feature is supported or not can be quite tedious at times.
Print the features supported in KVM hypervisor in a dedicated "virt" line instead of adding them to the common "flags".
To do so, define flags which are needed to be added in a dedicated virt line in /proc/cpuinfo with prefix X86_VIRT_FEATURE_.
