03216ed7bb selftests/resctrl: Share show_cache_info() by CAT and CMT tests
show_cache_info() functions are defined separately in CAT and CMT
tests. But the functions are same for the tests and unnecessary
to be defined separately. Share the function by the tests.

2f320911d9 selftests/resctrl: Rename CQM test as CMT test
CMT (Cache Monitoring Technology) [1] is a H/W feature that reports cache
occupancy of a process. resctrl selftest suite has a unit test to test CMT
for LLC but the test is named as CQM (Cache Quality Monitoring).
Furthermore, the unit test source file is named as cqm_test.c and several
functions, variables, comments, preprocessors and statements widely use
"cqm" as either suffix or prefix. This rampant misusage of CQM for CMT
might confuse someone who is newly looking at resctrl selftests because
this feature is named CMT in the Intel Software Developer's Manual.

Hence, rename all the occurrences (unit test source file name, functions,
variables, comments and preprocessors) of cqm with cmt.

[1] Please see Intel SDM, Volume 3, chapter 17 and section 18 for more
    information on CMT: https://software.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/articles/intel-sdm.html

2428673638 selftests/resctrl: Clean up resctrl features check
Checking resctrl features call strcmp() to compare feature strings
(e.g. "mba", "cat" etc). The checkings are error prone and don't have
good coding style. Define the constant strings in macros and call
strncmp() to solve the potential issues.

790bf585b0 selftests/resctrl: Add Cache Allocation Technology (CAT) selftest
Cache Allocation Technology (CAT) selftest allocates a portion of
last level cache and starts a benchmark to read each cache
line in this portion of cache. Measure the cache misses in perf and
the misses should be equal to the number of cache lines in this
portion of cache.

We don't use CQM to calculate cache usage because some CAT enabled
platforms don't have CQM.

78941183d1 selftests/resctrl: Add Cache QoS Monitoring (CQM) selftest
Cache QoS Monitoring (CQM) selftest starts stressful cache benchmark
with specified size of memory to access the cache. Last Level cache
occupancy reported by CQM should be close to the size of the memory.
