Currently, the resctrl_tests only has a function to detect AMD vendor.
Since when the Intel Sub-NUMA Clustering feature is enabled,
Intel CMT and MBM counters may not be accurate,
the resctrl_tests also need a function to detect Intel vendor.
And in the future, resctrl_tests will need a function to detect different
vendors, such as Arm.
Extend the function to detect Intel vendor as well. Also,
this function can be easily extended to detect other vendors.

There could be two reasons why a resctrl feature might not be enabled on
the platform
1. H/W might not support the feature
2. Even if the H/W supports it, the user might have disabled the feature
through kernel command line arguments
Hence, any resctrl unit test (like cmt, cat, mbm and mba) before starting
the test will first check if the feature is enabled on the platform or not.
If the feature isn't enabled, then the test returns with an error status.
For example, if MBA isn't supported on a platform and if the user tries to
run MBA, the output will look like this
ok mounting resctrl to "/sys/fs/resctrl"
not ok MBA: schemata change
But, not supporting a feature isn't a test failure. So, instead of treating
it as an error, use the SKIP directive of the TAP protocol. With the
change, the output will look as below
ok MBA # SKIP Hardware does not support MBA or MBA is disabled

Cache related tests (like CAT and CMT) depend on a variable called
no_of_bits to run. no_of_bits defines the number of contiguous bits
that should be set in the CBM mask and a user can pass a value for
no_of_bits using -n command line argument. If a user hasn't passed any
value, it defaults to 5 (randomly chosen value).
Hard coding no_of_bits to 5 will make the cache tests fail to run on
systems that support maximum cbm mask that is less than or equal to 5 bits.
Hence, don't hard code no_of_bits value.
If a user passes a value for "no_of_bits" using -n option, use it.
Otherwise, no_of_bits is equal to half of the maximum number of bits in
the cbm mask.
Please note that CMT test is still hard coded to 5 bits. It will change in
subsequent patches that change CMT test.

show_cache_info() functions are defined separately in CAT and CMT
tests. But the functions are same for the tests and unnecessary
to be defined separately. Share the function by the tests.

Checking resctrl features call strcmp() to compare feature strings
(e.g. "mba", "cat" etc). The checkings are error prone and don't have
good coding style. Define the constant strings in macros and call
strncmp() to solve the potential issues.

Reinette reported following compilation issue on Fedora 32, gcc version
10.1.1
/usr/bin/ld: cqm_test.o:<src_dir>/cqm_test.c:22: multiple definition of
`cache_size'; cat_test.o:<src_dir>/cat_test.c:23: first defined here
The same issue is reported for long_mask, cbm_mask, count_of_bits etc
variables as well. Compiler isn't happy because these variables are
defined globally in two .c files namely cqm_test.c and cat_test.c and
the compiler during compilation finds that the variable is already
defined (multiple definition error).
Taking a closer look at the usage of these variables reveals that these
variables are used only locally in functions such as cqm_resctrl_val()
(defined in cqm_test.c) and cat_perf_miss_val() (defined in cat_test.c).
These variables are not shared between those functions. So, there is no
need for these variables to be global. Hence, fix this issue by making
them static variables.

For now, disable MBA and MBM tests for AMD. Deciding test pass/fail
is not clear right now. We can enable when we have some clarity.

Cache Allocation Technology (CAT) selftest allocates a portion of
last level cache and starts a benchmark to read each cache
line in this portion of cache. Measure the cache misses in perf and
the misses should be equal to the number of cache lines in this
portion of cache.
We don't use CQM to calculate cache usage because some CAT enabled
platforms don't have CQM.
