x86, apic: Introduce .apicdrivers section to find the list of apic drivers
This will pave the way for each apic driver to be self-contained and eliminate the need for apic_probe[]. Order in which apic drivers are listed in the .apicdrivers section is important, as this determines the apic probe order. And this is enforced by the ordering of apic driver files in the Makefile and the macros apic_driver()/apic_drivers().
