docs/system: Deprecate raspi2/raspi3 machine aliases

Browse Source 
Since commit aa35ec2213 ("hw/arm/raspi: Use more specific
machine names") the raspi2/raspi3 machines have been renamed
as raspi2b/raspi3b.

Note, rather than the raspi3b, the raspi3ap introduced in
commit 5be94252d3 ("hw/arm/raspi: Add the Raspberry Pi 3
model A+") is a closer match to what QEMU models, but only
provides 512 MB of RAM.

As more Raspberry Pi 2/3 models are emulated, in order
to avoid confusion, deprecate the raspi2/raspi3 machine
aliases.

These machine types are very old and likely can not be used for live migration
from old QEMU versions anymore. A newer machine type should be used instead.
Raspberry Pi ``raspi2`` and ``raspi3`` machines (since 5.2)
'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
The Raspberry Pi machines come in various models (A, A+, B, B+). To be able
to distinguish which model QEMU is implementing, the ``raspi2`` and ``raspi3``
machines have been renamed ``raspi2b`` and ``raspi3b``.
