x86_64: further cleanup of 32-bit compat syscall mechanisms
AMD only supports "syscall" from 32-bit compat usermode.
Intel and Centaur(?) only support "sysenter" from 32-bit compat usermode.
Set the X86 feature bits accordingly, and set up the vdso in
accordance with those bits. On the offchance we run on in a 64-bit
environment which supports neither syscall nor sysenter from 32-bit
mode, then fall back to the int $0x80 vdso.
