Let's use the generated groups to create feature group representations for
the user. These groups can later be used to enable/disable multiple
features in one shot and will be used to reduce the amount of reported
features to the user if all subfeatures are in place.
We want to work on features using ordinary bitmap operations, however we
can't initialize a bitmap statically (unsigned long[] ...). Therefore
we store the generated feature lists in separate arrays and convert
them to a proper bitmaps before they will ever be used.

The patch introduces s390x CPU features (most of them refered to as
facilities) along with their discription and some functions that will be
helpful when working with the features later on.
Please note that we don't introduce all known CPU features, only the
ones currently supported by KVM + QEMU. We don't want to enable later
on blindly any facilities, for which we don't know yet if we need QEMU
support to properly support them (e.g. migrate additional state when
active). We can update QEMU later on.
