Here is a small patch for x86-64 which adds a cpufeature flag and
detection code for Intel's Branch Trace Store (BTS) feature. This
feature can be found on Intel P4 and Core 2 processors among others.
It can also be used by perfmon.

changelog:
- add CPU_FEATURE_BTS
- add Branch Trace Store detection
