x86/cpu/topology: Rework possible CPU management

Browse source 
Managing possible CPUs is an unreadable and uncomprehensible maze. Aside of
that it's backwards because it applies command line limits after
registering all APICs.

Rewrite it so that it:

  - Applies the command line limits upfront so that only the allowed amount
    of APIC IDs can be registered.

  - Applies eventual late restrictions in an understandable way

  - Uses simple min_t() calculations which are trivial to follow.

  - Provides a separate function for resetting to UP mode late in the
    bringup process.
