enh: when reading CPUID is unavailable (VM?), fallback to cpuinfo where applicable

built from commit 954eb13468
 dated 2026-04-06 18:58:36 +0200
 by Stéphane Lesimple (speed47_github@speed47.net)

 cap_* variable <= cpuinfo flag

cap_ibrs              <= ibrs
cap_ibpb              <= ibpb
cap_stibp             <= stibp
cap_ssbd              <= ssbd / virt_ssbd
cap_l1df              <= flush_l1d
cap_md_clear          <= md_clear
cap_arch_capabilities <= arch_capabilities

Should fix #288
