x86: Introduce struct cpu_policy to refer to a group of individual policies

This is prep work for the following patch - please refer to it as well.

When auditing and manipulating policies, it is necessary to do so with a
complete set of policies, due to the interdependences of the contents. A
containing structure like this will allow for clearer APIs and code.

As a first user, this structure is convenient for the mapping used by
XEN_SYSCTL_get_cpu_policy (implemented in the next patch), and for auditing
(later when XEN_DOMCTL_set_cpu_policy is implemented).

At this point, the distinction between *_max and *_default is introduced into
the ABI. For now, *_default is mapped to *_max, but future development work
will result in *_default being a logical subset of *_max.
