While the stibp CPU feature is not commonly used by guest OS for spectre
mitigation due to its performance impact, it is none the less best
practice to expose it to all guest OS. This allows the guest OS to
decide whether to make use or it.

The docs currently say that the spec-ctrl feature is needed for both
Spectre variants, but it is only used to address Spectre v2. Also
remove the note about retpolines. The guest OS is usually treated
as a blackbox from host mgmt pov, so it won't have knowledge about
use of retpolines and thus should unconditionally expose spec-ctrl,
allowing the guest to decide whether to use it or not.

With the recent set of CPU hardware vulnerabilities on x86, it is
increasingly difficult to understand which CPU configurations are
good to use and what flaws they might be vulnerable to.
This doc attempts to help management applications and administrators in
picking sensible CPU configuration on x86 hosts. It outlines which of
the named CPU models are good choices, and describes which extra CPU
flags should be enabled to allow the guest to mitigate hardware flaws.
