x86/bugs: Add a separate config for SRBDS
Currently, the CONFIG_SPECULATION_MITIGATIONS is halfway populated, where some mitigations have entries in Kconfig, and they could be modified, while others mitigations do not have Kconfig entries, and could not be controlled at build time. Create an entry for the SRBDS CPU mitigation under CONFIG_SPECULATION_MITIGATIONS. This allow users to enable or disable it at compilation time.

+ Enable mitigation for Special Register Buffer Data Sampling (SRBDS).
+ SRBDS is a hardware vulnerability that allows Microarchitectural Data
+ Sampling (MDS) techniques to infer values returned from special
+ register accesses. An unprivileged user can extract values returned
+ from RDRAND and RDSEED executed on another core or sibling thread
+ using MDS techniques.
