tools/power turbostat: Exit on unsupported Intel models 



Turbostat requires per-platform enabling for Intel CPU models due to
platform-specific features. When running on unsupported Intel CPU
models, turbostat currently operates with limited default features,
which can lead to users unknowingly using an outdated version of the
tool.

Enhance turbostat to exit by default when run on unsupported Intel CPU
models, with a clear message to users, informing them that their CPU
model is not supported and advising them to update to the latest version
of turbostat for full functionality.

[lenb: updated error message wording]
