964f8fbf3a Kernel: Implement AVX XSAVE support
This adds some new buffers to the `FPUState` struct, which contains
enough space for the `xsave` instruction to run. This instruction writes
the upper part of the x86 SIMD registers (YMM0-15) to a seperate
256-byte area, as well as an "xsave header" describing the region.

If the underlying processor supports AVX, the `fxsave` instruction is no
longer used, as `xsave` itself implictly saves all of the SSE and x87
registers.
