Microcode Updater Changes

The FreeBSD Foundation has collaborated with a few folks so that we can
continue to process and update microcode on FreeBSD.

This review represents the first step in updating our infrastructure.
If you are currently using microcode updates, please give this a spin
and report back if you see a different version of microcode being loaded
on the new package vs the old package.

Ports svn 470255 updates the microcode package devcpu-data to process
the same files that linux (and the only ones Intel releases now).

If you are a consumer of this package, you should see *no* difference in
the version update to your CPU. If you do, please respond to this thread.
