x86/cpu: Explain Intel model naming convention

Dave Hansen spelled out the rules in an e-mail:

 https://lkml.kernel.org/r/91eefbe4-e32b-d762-be4d-672ff915db47@intel.com

Copy those right into the <asm/intel-family.h> file to make it easy for
people to find them.

* While adding a new CPUID for a new microarchitecture, add a new
* group to keep logically sorted out in chronological order. Within
* that group keep the CPUID for the variants sorted by model number.
*
* The defined symbol names have the following form:
* INTEL_FAM6{OPTFAMILY}_{MICROARCH}{OPTDIFF}
* where:
* OPTFAMILY Describes the family of CPUs that this belongs to. Default
* is assumed to be "_CORE" (and should be omitted). Other values
* currently in use are _ATOM and _XEON_PHI
* MICROARCH Is the code name for the micro-architecture for this core.
* N.B. Not the platform name.
* OPTDIFF If needed, a short string to differentiate by market segment.
* Exact strings here will vary over time. _DESKTOP, _MOBILE, and
* _X (short for Xeon server) should be used when they are
* appropriate.
*
* The #define line may optionally include a comment including platform names.
