acpi: provide _PXM method for CPU devices if QEMU is started numa enabled

Workaround for long standing issue where Linux kernel
assigns hotplugged CPU to 1st numa node as it discards
proximity for possible CPUs from SRAT after it's parsed.

_PXM method allows linux query proximity directly from
hotplugged CPU object, which allows Linux to assing CPU
to the correct numa node.
