Jan Beulich c95088f090 x86: Make "spec-ctrl=no" a global disable of all mitigations ...

In order to have a simple and easy to remember means to suppress all the
more or less recent workarounds for hardware vulnerabilities, force
settings not controlled by "spec-ctrl=" also to their original defaults,
unless they've been forced to specific values already by earlier command
line options.

This is part of XSA-273.
