soc/intel/common/cpu: Handle non-zero BSP APIC ID in init_cpus
coreboot always assumes that BSP APIC ID will always be 0 but as per Intel 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer’s Manual Volume 3: 8.4.1 BSP and AP Processors, it says that BSP can be any processor whose index/APIC ID might not be 0. To handle this situation, init_cpu call is required to modify to handle dynamic detection of APIC ID from BSP instead of hardcoding always through devicetree. Function has been updated to create a new node with actual BSP APIC ID when devicetree doesn't contain APIC ID defined. In case APID ID is defined, function will use a node with the APIC ID defined in devicetree. Changes also requires to remove "lapic 0" hardcoding from devicetree to allow code to fill BSP APIC ID dynamically. Otherwise coreboot will create an extra node for CPU with APIC ID 0 and it'll show as a extra node in kernel. This will cause kernel to report wrong (extra) core count information then actually present. BUG=None BRANCH=None TEST=Boot the JSL system and observe there is no functional impacts. Without this CL kernel core count in `lscpu` = 3 With this CL, kernel core count is corrected to 2.
