Re: CPU microcode reported wrong in /proc/cpuinfo
    https://sourceware.org/pipermail/cygwin/2020-May/245063.html
earlier Windows releases used different registry values to store microcode
revisions depending on the MSR name being used to get microcode revisions:
add these alternative registry values to the cpuinfo registry value lookup;
iterate thru the registry data until a valid microcode revision is found;
some revision values are in the high bits, so if the low bits are all clear,
shift the revision value down into the low bits
