OS like Linux is using PPTT processor node's identical implementation flag [1] to infer whether the whole system or a certain CPU cluster is homogeneous or not [2]. QEMU currently only support building homogeneous system, set the flag to indicate the fact. Build a root node in PPTT for indicates the identical implementation which is needed for a multi-socket system. Update the related PPTT tables as well.
Since we'll update the test PPTT table data, upgrade the revision of PPTT we build to revision 3 by handy.
