x86/bugs: Select best SRSO mitigation
The SRSO bug can theoretically be used to conduct user->user or guest->guest attacks and requires a mitigation (namely IBPB instead of SBPB on context switch) for these. So mark SRSO as being applicable to the user->user and guest->guest attack vectors. Additionally, SRSO supports multiple mitigations which mitigate different potential attack vectors. Some CPUs are also immune to SRSO from certain attack vectors (like user->kernel). Use the specific attack vectors requiring mitigation to select the best SRSO mitigation to avoid unnecessary performance hits.
