conf: add new machine intel-skylake-64

Add 64-bit new machine (intel-skylake-64) with -march=skylake
and avx2 instruction-set set up.

We do see a qemu-usermode failure at build time, on setup of
avx2 instruction-set as QEMU does not support AVX instruction
set.

Check this:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1818075

So to bypass this issue disabling qemu-usermode for intel-skylake-64
machine.

Due to above limitation and in order to not affecting existing
machines, this new machine is being proposed to add.

A quick performance comparision between intel-corei7-64 vs intel-skylake-64 machines

Measurements are in time, taken by the benchmark tests. Less is better.
