Turn off V8 mitigations for CPU platforms where Spectre is fixed

Issue descriptionCurrently, V8 implements security mitigations like poisoning and array index masking to help protect against security vulnerability like Spectre. These mitigations are governed by a build-time flag untrusted-code-mitigations and can cause performance regression for some computational-heavy workloads. Since these vulnerability may have been fixed on some latest CPUs, and ChomeOS image is built per platforms, I was wondering if we can turn off untrusted-code-mitigations when building ChromeOS for platforms with fixed CPUs.

Could you please provide a list of CPUs that have fixes for Spectre?
