sconfig: rename lapic_cluster -> cpu_cluster
The name lapic_cluster is a bit misleading, since the construct is not local
APIC specific by concept. As implementations and hardware change, be more
generic about our naming. This will allow us to support non-x86 systems without
adding new keywords.

What is the APIC? Northbridges always have an Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller, and that {\it APIC cluster} is a topological connection to the
-CPU socket. So the tree is rooted at the northbridge, which has a link to an apic cluster, and then the CPU. The CPU contains

its own APIC, and will define any parameters needed. In this case, we have a northbridge of type

Note that we do not enumerate all CPUs, even on this SMP mainboard. The reason is they may not all be there. The CPU we define here
is the so-called Boot Strap Processor, or BSP; the other CPUs will come along later, as the are discovered. We do not require (unlike many
