MCE, AMD: Drop too granulary family model checks

MCA details seldom change inbetween the models of a family so don't
be too conservative and enable decoding on everything starting from
K8 onwards. Minor adjustments can come in later but most importantly,
we have some decoding infrastructure in place for upcoming models by
default.
