572023f7b2 block: Remove deprecated -drive option serial
This reinstates commit b008326744,
which was temporarily reverted for the 3.0 release so that libvirt gets
some extra time to update their command lines.

The -drive option serial was deprecated in QEMU 2.10. It's time to
remove it.

Tests need to be updated to set the serial number with -global instead
of using the -drive option.

b24ec3c462 block: Remove deprecated -drive geometry options
This reinstates commit a7aff6dd10,
which was temporarily reverted for the 3.0 release so that libvirt gets
some extra time to update their command lines.

The -drive options cyls, heads, secs and trans were deprecated in
QEMU 2.10. It's time to remove them.

hd-geo-test tested both the old version with geometry options in -drive
and the new one with -device. Therefore the code using -drive doesn't
have to be replaced there, we just need to remove the -drive test cases.
This in turn allows some simplification of the code.

44c67847e3 qemu-doc: Move appendix "Deprecated features" to its own file
Consumers of QEMU need to track feature deprecation.  Keeping
deprecation documentation in its own file helps in two small ways:

* You can track changes the easy and obvious way, with git-log.
  Before, you had to resort to more complex gittery like "git-log
  --oneline -L '/@node Deprecated features/,/@node Supported build
  platforms/:qemu-doc.texi'"

* It lets us use MAINTAINERS to copy interested parties on deprecation
  patches, so they can advise or object before they're a done deal.
  The next commit will do that for libvirt.
