x86/intel_rdt: Implement "update" mode when writing schemata file

The schemata file can have multiple lines and it is cumbersome to update
all lines.

Remove code that requires that the user provides values for every resource
(in the right order).  If the user provides values for just a few
resources, update them and leave the rest unchanged.

Side benefit: we now check which values were updated and only send IPIs to
cpus that actually have updates.

+Reading/writing the schemata file
+---------------------------------
+Reading the schemata file will show the state of all resources
+on all domains. When writing you only need to specify those values
+which you wish to change.  E.g.
+
+# cat schemata
+L3DATA:0=fffff;1=fffff;2=fffff;3=fffff
+L3CODE:0=fffff;1=fffff;2=fffff;3=fffff
+# echo "L3DATA:2=3c0;" > schemata
+# cat schemata
+L3DATA:0=fffff;1=fffff;2=3c0;3=fffff
+L3CODE:0=fffff;1=fffff;2=fffff;3=fffff
