docs: document deprecation policy & deprecated features in appendix
The deprecation of features in QEMU is totally adhoc currently, with no way for the user to get a list of what is deprecated in each release. This adds an appendix to the doc that records when each deprecation was made and provides text explaining what to use instead, if anything. Since there has been no formal policy around removal of deprecated features in the past, any deprecations prior to 2.10.0 are to be treated as if they had been made at the 2.10.0 release. Thus the earliest that existing deprecations will be deleted is the start of the 2.12.0 cycle. Signed-off-by:Daniel P.
