Refactor the existing code that supports the Intel Turbo feature to
move all the driver specific bits in the cpufreq driver.  Create
a tri-state interface for the Turbo feature that can distinguish
amongst enabled Turbo, disabled Turbo, and processors that don't
support Turbo at all.

Changing the code this way is necessary because the similar AMD
feature Boost has a similar external interface but a very
different internal implementation.
