tools/power turbostat: Introduce --force parameter

Turbostat currently exits under the following conditions:
1. When running on non-Intel/AMD/Hygon x86 vendors.
2. When running on Intel models that lack specific platform features.

Introduce a new `--force` parameter that allows turbostat to run on
these unsupported platforms with minimal default feature support. This
provides users with the flexibility to gather basic information even on
unsupported systems.
