x86/irq: Suppress unlikely interrupt stats by default

Unlikely interrupt counters like the spurious vector and the synthetic APIC
ICR read retry show up in /proc/interrupts with all counts 0 most of the
time.

As these are events which should never happen, suppress them by default and
enable them for output when they actually happen.

This requires a seperate bitmap as the description array is marked
__ro_after_init. With that bitmap in place it becomes RO data.
