cpu/x86/smm: Add a common save state handling
Currently coreboot has limited use for the SMM save state. Typically the only thing needed is to get or set a few registers and to know which CPU triggered the SMI (typically via an IO write). Abstracting away different SMM save states would allow to put some SMM functionality like the SMMSTORE entry in common places. To save place platforms can select different SMM save sate ops that should be implemented. For instance AMD platforms don't need Intel SMM save state handling. Some platforms can encounter CPUs with different save states, which the code then handles at runtime by comparing the SMM save state revision which is located at the same offset for all SMM save state types.
