spapr: Tag pseries-2.1 - 2.11 machines as deprecated

Browse Source 
pseries machines before version 2.11 have undergone many changes to
correct issues, mostly regarding migration compatibility. This is
obfuscating the code uselessly and makes maintenance more difficult.
Remove them and only keep the last version of the 2.x series, 2.12,
still in use by old distros.

Older pseries machines before version 2.12 have undergone many changes
to correct issues, mostly regarding migration compatibility. These are
no longer maintained and removing them will make the code easier to
read and maintain. Use versions 2.12 and above as a replacement.
