x86/idle: Select idle routine only once

The idle routine selection is done on every CPU bringup operation and
has a guard in place which is effective after the first invocation,
which is a pointless exercise.

Invoke it once on the boot CPU and mark the related functions __init.
The guard check has to stay as xen_set_default_idle() runs early.
