use command line cpu type, cupid for VIA Eden

I have a CentaurHauls VIA Samuel 2 cpu that the cpu_detection() fails to detect. The -C command line option mostly works, but not for motion compensation. That routine is calling cpu_detection() again. This patch uses the global cpu_type variable which is either detected or set by the command line. There is also a call in b_mp1e.c to cpu_detection() that probably can't be overridden.
use the global cpu_type rather than calling cpu_detection() again.

The second patch adds VIA Eden CPU type to cpuid, the first patch is no long required. It modifies the --help usage information by printing all the -C options understood instead of hard-coding only part of them.

use global cpu_type, add via eden cpu type
