x86/Kconfig: Rework CONFIG_X86_PAE dependency
While looking at a Xen Kconfig dependency issue, I tried to understand the exact dependencies for CONFIG_X86_PAE, which is selected by CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G but can also be enabled manually. Apparently the dependencies for CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G are strictly about CPUs that do support PAE, but the actual feature can be incorrectly enabled on older CPUs as well. The CONFIG_X86_CMPXCHG64 dependencies on the other hand include X86_PAE because cmpxchg8b is requried for PAE to work. Rework this for readability and correctness, using a positive list of CPUs that support PAE in a new X86_HAVE_PAE symbol that can serve as a dependency for both X86_PAE and HIGHMEM64G as well as simplify the X86_CMPXCHG64 dependency list.
