[PATCH 1/2] kunit: tool: Add x86_64-smp architecture for SMP testing

Add a new QEMU config for kunit_tool, x86_64-smp, which provides an
8-cpu SMP setup. No other kunit_tool configurations provide an SMP
setup, so this is the best bet for testing things like KCSAN, which
require a multicore/multi-cpu system.

The choice of 8 CPUs is pretty arbitrary: it's enough to get tests like
KCSAN to run with a nontrivial number of worker threads, while still
working relatively quickly on older machines.
