efi/cper: Add a new helper function to print bitmasks

[ Upstream commit a976d790f49499ccaa0f991788ad8ebf92e7fd5c ]

Add a helper function to print a string with names associated
to each bit field.

A typical example is:

const char * const bits[] = {
"bit 3 name",
"bit 4 name",
"bit 5 name",
};
char str[120];
        unsigned int bitmask = BIT(3) | BIT(5);

#define MASK  GENMASK(5,3)

cper_bits_to_str(str, sizeof(str), FIELD_GET(MASK, bitmask),
 bits, ARRAY_SIZE(bits));

The above code fills string "str" with "bit 3 name|bit 5 name".
