sysutils/devcpu-data: Split off two new ports for vendor data
sysutils/devcpu-data is now just an RC script that optionally depends on
two new ports, sysutils/devcpu-data-amd and sysutils/devcpu-data-intel.
The two new ports each contain vendor microcode data.
While here:
- Set missing license information. The license was obtained from
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/tree/LICENSE.amd-ucode
- Update varaible ordering per portclippy
