Document --rtc-td-hack, --localtime and --startdate as deprecated 



These options have been marked in a comment in qemu-options.hx as
deprecated in 2009 already (see commit 1ed2fc1f), but we
never informed the users about these deprecations. Let's catch up
on that omission now.

@subsection -rtc-td-hack (since 2.12.0)



The ``-no-frame'' argument works with SDL 1.2 only.  SDL 2.0 lacks

support for frameless windows, and the other user interfaces never

implemented this in the first place.  So this will be removed together

with SDL 1.2 support.

The @code{-rtc-td-hack} option has been replaced by

@code{-rtc driftfix=slew}.



@subsection -localtime (since 2.12.0)



The @code{-localtime} option has been replaced by @code{-rtc base=localtime}.



@subsection -startdate (since 2.12.0)



The @code{-startdate} option has been replaced by @code{-rtc base=@var{date}}.
