[PATCH 13/14] topology: Create package_threads sysfs attribute

[Len Brown]

From: Len Brown <len.br...@intel.com>

The sysfs cpu/topology/core_siblings (and core_siblings_list)
attributes are documented, implemented, and used by programs to
represent set of logical CPU threads sharing the same package.

This makes sense if the next topology level above a core
is always a package.  But on systems where there is a die
topology level between a core and a package, the name
no longer makese sense.

So without changing its function, add a name for this map
that describes what it actually is -- package threads --
the set of logical CPU threads that share the same package.

This new name will be immune to changes in topology, since
it describes threads at the current level, not siblings
at a contained level.
