There are now two 'backends' of device plug/unplug events, and there is about
to become three. Rather than just adding two more vfuncs for every backend type
define common ones that all providers can use.
Also fix up the existing in-tree plugins to use the new vfunc names and filter
on the correct GType.
When this is done, include:
* Including the hash
* Including anything that is not ABI stable in plugins yet

This is much more efficient than parsing hundreds of lines of /proc/cpuinfo
and also causes hundreds of thousands less allocations at startup. For systems
with dozens of virtual CPUs the deduplication of device objects was increasing
start up time considerably.
Use the msr plugin to read the microcode version as this is not obtained using
CPUID, as it is instead being provided in an MSR.
