The '-singlestep' option is confusing, because it doesn't actually
have anything to do with single-stepping the CPU. What it does do
is force TCG emulation to put one guest instruction in each TB,
which can be useful in some situations.
Create a new command line argument -one-insn-per-tb, so we can
document that -singlestep is just a deprecated synonym for it,
and eventually perhaps drop it.

It's likely broken, and nobody cared for picking it up again
during the deprecation phase, so let's remove this now.
Since this is the last entry in deprecated_targets_list, remove
the related code in the configure script, too.

The 'Quick Start' section of the userspace emulator documentation is
very old and outdated. In particular:
- it suggests running x86-on-x86 emulation, which is the least
interesting possible use case
- it recommends that users download tarballs of guest binaries
from the QEMU web page which we no longer provide there
There's nothing salvageable here; delete it all.

The company 'Arm' went through a rebranding some years back
involving a recapitalization from 'ARM' to 'Arm'. As a result
our documentation is a bit inconsistent between the two forms.
It's not worth trying to update everywhere in QEMU, but it's
easy enough to make docs/ consistent.
Note that "ARMv8" and similar architecture names, and
older CPU names like "ARM926" still retain all-caps.

The final addition to the set of QEMU manuals is the user-mode emulation
manual, which right now is included in qemu-doc.texi. Extract it and
convert it to rST, so that qemu-doc.texi covers only full system emulation.
