x86/bugs: Add X86_BUG_SPECTRE_V2_USER
All CPU vulnerabilities with command line options map to a single X86_BUG bit
except for Spectre V2 where both the spectre_v2 and spectre_v2_user command
line options are related to the same bug.
The spectre_v2 command line options mostly relate to user->kernel and
guest->host mitigations, while the spectre_v2_user command line options relate
to user->user or guest->guest protections.
Define a new X86_BUG bit for spectre_v2_user so each *_select_mitigation()
function in bugs.c is related to a unique X86_BUG bit.
No functional changes.
