x86, mce: add table driven machine check grading
The machine check grading (as in deciding what should be done for a given register value) has to be done multiple times soon and it's also getting more complicated. So it makes sense to consolidate it into a single function. To get smaller and more straight forward and possibly more extensible code I opted towards a new table driven method. The various rules are put into a table when is then executed by a very simple interpreter. The grading engine is in a new file mce-severity.c. I also added a private include file mce-internal.h, because mce.h is already a bit too cluttered. This is dead code right now, but will be used in followon patches.
