x86/pkeys: Add quirk to disable PKU when XFEATURE_PKRU is missing

Even when X86_FEATURE_PKU and X86_FEATURE_OSPKE are available,
XFEATURE_PKRU can be missing on some popular VM environments
such as Apple Virtualization.

In such a case, pkeys has to be disabled to avoid a boot time hang:

Tested with MacOS 13.5.2 running on MacBook Pro 2020 with
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1068NG7 CPU @ 2.30GHz.

[ mingo: Issue a boot time warning to give VMs a chance to fix this. ]
