[Intel-xe] [PATCH v3] drm/xe: Add fake workaround to maintain backward compatible in MI_BATCH_BUFFER_START

i915 has the same fake workaround to return MI_BATCH_BUFFER_START
nested batch buffer behavior in DG2 and newer platforms to the same
behavior as older platforms.

So here cleaning up TGL_NESTED_BB_EN in MI_MODE to disable third level
chained batch buffer level.

v2:
- replace IP_VERSION_FOREVER by XE_RTP_END_VERSION_UNDEFINED
- move fake workaround to lrc_additional_programming table

v3:
- drop xe_wa_process_lrc_additional_programming()
