acpi: Move common tables helper functions to common lib
Some of the routines in ACPI driver/acpi/tables.c can be shared with
parsing CDAT. CDAT is a device-provided data structure that is formatted
similar to a platform provided ACPI table. CDAT is used by CXL and can
exist on platforms that do not use ACPI. Split out the common routine
from ACPI to accommodate platforms that do not support ACPI and move that
to /lib. The common routines can be built outside of ACPI if
FIRMWARE_TABLES is selected.
