Add mitigation information to the linux vulnerabilities collector (#2806)

While the CPU vulnerabilities collector has been added in https://github.com/prometheus/node_exporter/pull/2721 , it's currently not including information regarding the mitigation strategy used for a given vulnerability.

This information can be quite valuable, as often times different mitigation strategies come with a different performance impact.

This commit adds a third label to the cpu_vulnerabilities_info metric, to include the "mitigation" used for a given vulnerability - if a given vulnerability is not affecting a node or the node is still vulnerable, the mitigation is expected to be empty.
