x86/topo: Map vendor CPU types to generic Linux such types

Browse source 
Sashiko reported¹ that a confusion could ensue if a vendor-specific CPU
type 0 (performance) gets attempted to be used in a x86_cpu_id match
table. The current logic treats 0 as the wildcard X86_CPU_TYPE_ANY and
such a thing would end up matching the wrong CPUs.

This is all backwards because we started using the vendor-specific CPU
type number instead of using a Linux-defined, generic CPU type which
is agnostic.

Convert the current logic to it before users start appearing.
