x86, apic: Introduce .apicdrivers section to find the list of apic drivers

This will pave the way for each apic driver to be self-contained
and eliminate the need for apic_probe[].

Order in which apic drivers are listed in the .apicdrivers
section is important, as this determines the apic probe order.
And this is enforced by the ordering of apic driver files in the
Makefile and the macros apic_driver()/apic_drivers().
