Add new version of Snowridge, Denverton, Opteron_G3, EPYC, and Dhyana
CPU model to remove MONITOR/MWAIT feature.

After QEMU/KVM use "-overcommit cpu-pm=on" to expose MONITOR/MWAIT
(commit id 6f131f13e68d648a8e4f083c667ab1acd88ce4cd), the MONITOR/MWAIT
feature in these CPU model is unused.

We never changed model-id when adding/removing features in
machine-type code, and I don't see why we should start doing that
now.  This info might be helpful on "-cpu help", but probably
confusing for people looking at /proc/cpuinfo inside the VM.

If you think it is important to add extra info to "-cpu help", I
suggest you send a patch adding a separate field instead of
changing model ID on CPUID.

OK I will add a new info to do this.

I am so forry for sending this old version patch by mistake.

Please ignore this patch.
