soc/intel/common/block/acpi: Return existing Object for _DSM subfunction 

Currently the LPIT Get Constraints _DSM subfunction returns a package
containing the path to a nonexistent device (\NULL). This is used to
work around an issue with Windows, where returning an empty package will
cause a BSOD.  However, using this non-existent device can also cause
confusion, as on Linux, it shows an error in dmesg, e.g.

    ACPI Error: AE_NOT_FOUND, While resolving a named reference package
    element - \NULL (20200925/dspkginit-438)

Therefore, this patch modifies this returned package slightly to include
the path to ACPI_CPU_STRING for CPU 0, which should always be emitted on
Intel platforms that use the PEP driver.

Tested on google/brya0 on ChromeOS 5.10 kernel
Tested with current Windows 11 ISO
