// This file determines x86/AMD64 features a processor supports.
//
// We return:
// - 0 if the machine matches the asked-for feature.
// - 1 if the machine does not.
// - 2 if the asked-for feature isn't recognised (this will be the case for
//     any feature if run on a non-x86/AMD64 machine).
// - 3 if there was a usage error (it also prints an error message).
