ACRN hypervisor is a type-1 hypervisor and this patch
adds support to check and validate if the system is
capable of running kata containers with ACRN hypervisor.
Depends-on: github.com/kata-containers/tests#1793
v3->v4:
Implemented a generic way to identify hypervisor and
test VM creation.
v2->v3:
1. Removed cgo structs and defined go structs.
2. Suppressed lint warnings due to unused createVM struct.
v1->v2:
1. Created an issue #1784 to address TODO item.
2. Fixed formatting of the log message.
3. Currently ACRN is only supported on amd64. So
moved ACRN specific code to kata-check_amd64.go.
Fixes: #1778

Auger Eric's latest patches about "ARM virt: Initial RAM expansion
and extended memory map"(https://patchwork.kernel.org/cover/10835377/)
paves the way to device memory, which is the foundation for NVDIMM and
memory hotplug.
This new feature on qemu kinds of depends on host kernel's new feature
on dynamic IPA range(https://lwn.net/Articles/750176/).
The availability of this feature is advertised by a new kvm cap
KVM_CAP_ARM_VM_IPA_SIZE. When supported, this capability returns the
maximum IPA shift supported by the host. The supported IPA size on
a host could be different from the system's PARange indicated
by the CPUs (e.g, kernel limit on the PA size).

Since we prefer vsock over virtio serial port, we add 'vhost_vsock'
in kernel mosules list.
But vhost_vsock.ko shouldn't be the definitely required kernel modules,
afterall, we could also use virtio serial port.
if kata-env shows SupportsVSocks as false, users could run kata-check
to manually load vhost_vsock.ko and get detailed info(errors)

since all generic* could bring unused linter warnings, which lead to
CI crash, we add nolint comment to avoid them.

We have optionally handled it in kernel parameter in
genericArchKernelParamHandler but kata-check still forcely require it to
be present. Let's only require it when running on baremetal.

There were missing test cases in Arm64 for platform-dependent
kata-check and kata-env, leading to 'make test' failure under
kata-containers/runtime

The CPUinfo need to be refined in Arm architecture, because the
vendor and model of CPU may refer to different meaning in Arm architecture.
Besides, relevant contents extracted from /proc/cpuinfo may need to be
normalized for human-readability.
