microcode: Add script to check for latest upstream releases

Add a script to check for latest upstream releases for both upstream sources of microcode (microcode-ctl for Intel; linux-firmware for AMD). We have similar convenience scripts to check for the latest version of srpm available in Amazon Linux repositories for packages we base on Amazon Linux.
