Different versions of PC machine support different maximum vCPUs, and
even different features have limits on the maximum number of vCPUs (
For example, if x2apic is not enabled in the TCG case, the maximum of
255 vCPUs are supported).
It is difficult to list the maximum vCPUs under all restrictions. Thus,
to avoid confusion, avoid mentioning specific maximum vCPU number
limitations here.

QEMU's PIIX3 implementation actually models the real PIIX4, but with different
PCI IDs. Usually, guests deal just fine with it. Still, in order to provide a
more consistent illusion to guests, allow QEMU's PIIX4 implementation to be used
in the PC machine.

Sphinx doesn't have very good facilities for marking chunks
of documentation as "put this in the manpage only". So instead
we move the parts we want to put into both the HTML manuals
and the manpage into their own .rst.inc files, which we can
include from both the main manual rst files and a new toplevel
rst file that will be the skeleton of the qemu.1 manpage.
In this commit, just split out the parts of the documentation
that go in the manpage.
