x86: add rom cache variable MTRR index to tables
Downstream payloads may need to take advantage of caching the ROM for performance reasons. Add the ability to communicate the variable range MTRR index to use to perform the caching enablement. An example usage implementation would be to obtain the variable MTRR index that covers the ROM from the coreboot tables. Then one would disable caching and change the MTRR type from uncacheable to write-protect and enable caching. The opposite sequence is required to tearn down the caching.
