honor ACPI v4 FADT flags
- force use of physical APIC mode if indicated so (as we don't support xAPIC cluster mode, the respective flag is taken to force physical mode too) - don't use MSI if indicated so (implies no IOMMU) Both can be overridden on the command line, for the MSI case this at once adds a new command line option allowing to turn off PCI MSI (IOMMU and HPET are unaffected by this).
