icount: add sleep parameter to the icount option to set icount_sleep mode

Browse Source 
The 'sleep' parameter sets the icount_sleep mode, which is enabled by
default. To disable it, add the 'sleep=no' parameter (or 'nosleep') to the
qemu -icount option.

When the virtual cpu is sleeping, the virtual time will advance at default
speed unless @option{sleep=no} is specified.
With @option{sleep=no}, the virtual time will jump to the next timer deadline
instantly whenever the virtual cpu goes to sleep mode and will not advance
if no timer is enabled. This behavior give deterministic execution times from
the guest point of view.
Note that while this option can give deterministic behavior, it does not
provide cycle accurate emulation. Modern CPUs contain superscalar out of
