Legacy PCI devices don't have any extended config space. Reading any part
thereof may return all ones or other arbitrary data, e.g. in some cases
base config space contents repeatedly.

Logic follows Linux 6.19-rc's pci_cfg_space_size(), albeit leveraging our
determination of device type; in particular some comments are taken
verbatim from there. Like with Linux'es CONFIG_PCI_QUIRKS, only the alias
detection logic is covered by the new "pci=no-quirks". The singular access
at PCI_CFG_SPACE_SIZE is left unconditional.

---
The warning near the bottom of pci_check_extcfg() may be issued multiple
times for a single device now. Should we try to avoid that?

Note that no vPCI adjustments are done here, but they're going to be
needed: Whatever requires extended capabilities will need re-
evaluating / newly establishing / tearing down in case an invocation of
PHYSDEVOP_pci_mmcfg_reserved alters global state.
---
v3: Add command line (sub-)option.
v2: Major re-work to also check upon PHYSDEVOP_pci_mmcfg_reserved
    invocation.
