This patch changes the way cpu_index is handed out to newly created
CPUs by tracking the allocted CPUs in a bitmap. More information and
the need for this patch is described in patch 2/3 of this series. These
generic changes are needed to support CPU hot plug/unplug on PowerPC.

An open question is about handling of holes correctly in the allocated
bitmap to support VM migration after CPU unplug. This was briefly discussed
here:

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2015-04/msg00560.html

Should cpu_exec_init() API support specifying of a particular cpu_index
in addition to returning the next available cpu_index by default ? I know
that QEMU cmdline semantics for CPU device add/delele haven't been defined
yet, but should we now make provision in cpu_exec_init() to allocate the
required cpu_index ?

Changes in v2
-------------
Following changes to address Eduardo's comments:

- Call cpu_exec_init() from generic CPU::instance_finalize() instead
  of touching all archs.
- Initialize cpu_index to -1 from generic CPU::instance_init().
- Callers of cpu_exec_init() now pass error_abort argument instead of NULL.
- Consolidate the older CPU enumeration code for CONFIG_USER_ONLY under
  cpu_get_free_index().
