UPSTREAM: <carry>: require configuration file enablement

similarly to what we do for the managed CPU (aka workload partitioning)
feature, introduce a master configuration file
`/etc/kubernetes/openshift-llc-alignment` which needs to be present for
the LLC alignment feature to be activated, in addition to the policy
option being required.
