When running with KVM on POWER, we are registering a "family" CPU
type for the host CPU that we are running on. For example, on all
POWER8-compatible hosts, we register a "POWER8" CPU type, so that
you can always start QEMU with "-cpu POWER8" there, without the
need to know whether you are running on a POWER8, POWER8E or POWER8NVL
host machine.
However, we also have a "POWER8" CPU alias in the ppc_cpu_aliases list
(that is mainly useful for TCG). This leads to two cosmetical drawbacks:
If the user runs QEMU with "-cpu ?", we always claim that POWER8 is an
"alias for POWER8_v2.0" - which is simply not true when running with
KVM on POWER. And when using the 'query-cpu-definitions' QMP call,
there are currently two entries for "POWER8", one for the alias, and
one for the additional registered type.
To solve the two problems, we should rather update the "family" alias
instead of registering a new types. We then only have one "POWER8"
CPU definition around, an alias, which also points to the right
destination.

The 'cpu_version' field in PowerPCCPU is badly named. It's named after the
'cpu-version' device tree property where it is advertised, but that meaning
may not be obvious in most places it appears.
Worse, it doesn't even really correspond to that device tree property. The
property contains either the processor's PVR, or, if the CPU is running in
a compatibility mode, a special "logical PVR" representing which mode.
Rename the cpu_version field, and a number of related variables to
compat_pvr to make this clearer.

Move the generic cpu_synchronize_ functions to the common hw_accel.h header,
in order to prepare for the addition of a second hardware accelerator.

We've currently got 18 architectures in QEMU, and thus 18 target-xxx
folders in the root folder of the QEMU source tree. More architectures
(e.g. RISC-V, AVR) are likely to be included soon, too, so the main
folder of the QEMU sources slowly gets quite overcrowded with the
target-xxx folders.
To disburden the main folder a little bit, let's move the target-xxx
folders into a dedicated target/ folder, so that target-xxx/ simply
becomes target/xxx/ instead.
