Problem is the way it is documented tends to encourage continued use of
the numeric values (notice how reports irt Zen 4 mention "tsc_mode=1").

`parse_config_data()` suggests the appropriate string value, so nominally
that should take care of older configurations.  If "xen-tscmode" really
needs to continue mentioning the numeric value, it should be in
parentheses and with "old value" to suggest moving away from that.
