The architectural feature FEAT_ETS (Enhanced Translation
Synchronization) is a set of tightened guarantees about memory
ordering involving translation table walks:
* if memory access RW1 is ordered-before memory access RW2 then it
is also ordered-before any translation table walk generated by RW2
that generates a translation fault, address size fault or access
fault
* TLB maintenance on non-exec-permission translations is guaranteed
complete after a DSB (ie it does not need the context
synchronization event that you have to have if you don’t have
FEAT_ETS)
For QEMU’s implementation we don’t reorder translation table walk
accesses, and we guarantee to finish the TLB maintenance as soon as
the TLB op is done (the tlb_flush functions will complete at the end
of the TLB, and TLB ops always end the TB because they’re sysreg
writes).
So we’re already compliant and all we need to do is say so in the ID
registers for the 'max' CPU.

Instead of using feature_not_found(), which is not a good match because
there is no "remedy" to fix the lack of makecontext(), just print a
custom error.
This happens to remove the last use of feature_not_found(), so remove
the definition and the documentation.

1. Add some information about how to boot the LoongArch virt
machine by uefi bios and linux kernel and how to access the
source code or binary file.
2. Move the explanation of LoongArch system emulation in the

These changes match those made in the following libvirt commits:
2ac78307af docs: Clarify our stance on backported packages
78cffd450a docs: Spell out our policy concerning minor releases
Since QEMU's platform support policy is based on libvirt's, it
makes sense to mirror these recent changes made to the latter.
The policy is not altered significantly - we're simply spelling
out some rules that were likely already being implicitly
enforced.

The note about the removal of '-soundhw' has been accidentally added
to the section of removed "linux-user mode CPUs" ... it should reside
in the section about removed "System emulator command line arguments"
instead.

Commit cf60ccc330 ("cutils: Introduce bundle mechanism") introduced
a Python script to populate a bundle directory using os.symlink() to
point to the binaries in the pc-bios directory of the source tree.
Commit 882084a04a ("datadir: Use bundle mechanism") removed previous
logic in pc-bios/meson.build to create a link/copy of pc-bios binaries
in the build tree so os.symlink() is the way to go.
However os.symlink() may fail [1] on Windows if an unprivileged Windows
user started the QEMU build process, which results in QEMU executables
generated in the build tree not able to load the default BIOS/firmware
images due to symbolic links not present in the bundle directory.
This commits updates the documentation by adding such caveats for users
who want to build QEMU on the Windows platform.
