Currently CPUID_HT is evaluated in cpu_x86_cpuid() each time. It's not a
correct usage of how feature bit is maintained and evaluated. The
expected practice is that features are tracked in env->features[] and
cpu_x86_cpuid() should be the consumer of env->features[].
Track CPUID_HT in env->features[FEAT_1_EDX] instead and evaluate it in
cpu's realizefn().

There is one issue[1] of CPUID_HT being user settable that when
"-cpu xxx,-ht" with "-smp 2", HT flag is still exposed to guest.
However, the issue is not irrelevant to this patch. If anyone has
interest to reslove it please go ahead.
