6695e4c0fd softmmu/vl: Deprecate the -sdl and -curses option
It's not that much complicated to type "-display sdl" or "-display curses",
so we should not clutter our main option name space with such simple
wrapper options and rather present the users with a concise interface
instead. Thus let's deprecate the "-sdl" and "-curses" wrapper options now.

d46156fdcc softmmu/vl: Deprecate the old grab options
The alt_grab and ctrl_grab parameter of the -display sdl option prevent
the QAPIfication of the "sdl" part of the -display option, so we should
eventually remove them. And since this feature is also rather niche anyway,
we should not clutter the top-level option list with these, so let's
also deprecate the "-alt-grab" and the "-ctrl-grab" options while we're
at it.

Once the deprecation period of "alt_grab" and "ctrl_grab" is over, we
then can finally switch the -display sdl option to use QAPI internally,
too.

e2cc363bbb docs/about: Unify the subject format
There is a mixture of "since/removed in X.Y" vs "since/removed in X.Y.Z"
in the subjects in deprecated.rst/removed-features.rst. It will be better
to use an unified format. It seems unlikely that we will ever deprecate
something in a stable release, and even more unlikely that we'll remove
something in one, so the short versions look like the thing we want to
standardize on.

So here we unify the subject format in deprecated.rst to "since X.Y", and
unify the subject format in removed-features.rst to "removed in X.Y".

f347839258 docs: Move deprecation, build and license info out of system/
Now that we have a single Sphinx manual rather than multiple manuals,
we can provide a better place for "common to all of QEMU" information
like the deprecation notices, build platforms, license information,
which we currently have in the system/ manual even though it applies
to all of QEMU.

Create a new directory about/ on the same level as system/, user/,
etc, and move these documents there.
