IFS uses 'scan test images' provided by Intel that can be regarded as
firmware. IFS test image carries microcode header with extended signature
table.

Expose find_matching_signature() for verifying if the test image
header or the extended signature table indicate whether an IFS test image
is fit to run on a system. Move the function to cpu/intel.c and
add intel_ prefix to the function name.

No functional change
