`jdk.CPUInformation` event on AArch64 has valid CPU description in [JDK-8262491](https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8262491), however it does not work on UEFI booted machine.
[JDK-8262491](https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8262491) refers device tree to get board name, however it does not exist on UEFI. We need to refer DMI.
However we need to have root privilege, so we refer /sys/devices/virtual/dmi/id to avoid it.
We can get board name from /sys/devices/virtual/dmi/id/board_name, but some machine set empty string to it. So we will refer /sys/devices/virtual/dmi/id/product_name as a fallback.
For example, we can get following CPU description on AWS A1 instance after this change:
jdk.CPUInformation {
startTime = 05:28:24.506
cpu = "AArch64"
description = "AArch64 a1.2xlarge 0x41:0x0:0xd08:3, simd, crc, aes, sha1, sha256"
sockets = 8
cores = 8
hwThreads = 8
}
