Document that the -singlestep command line option is now
deprecated, as it is replaced by either the TCG accelerator
property 'one-insn-per-tb' for system emulation or the new
'-one-insn-per-tb' option for usermode emulation, and remove
the only use of the deprecated syntax from a README.

This removes all of the problems with unaligned accesses
to the bytecode stream.
With an 8-bit opcode at the bottom, we have 24 bits remaining,
which are generally split into 6 4-bit slots. This fits well
with the maximum length opcodes, e.g. INDEX_op_add2_i32, which
have 6 register operands.
We have, in previous patches, rearranged things such that there
are no operations with a label which have more than one other
operand. Which leaves us with a 20-bit field in which to encode
a label, giving us a maximum TB size of 512k -- easily large.
Change the INDEX_op_tci_movi_{i32,i64} opcodes to tci_mov[il].
The former puts the immediate in the upper 20 bits of the insn,
like we do for the label displacement. The later uses a label
to reference an entry in the constant pool. Thus, in the worst
case we still have a single memory reference for any constant,
but now the constants are out-of-line of the bytecode and can
be shared between different moves saving space.
Change INDEX_op_call to use a label to reference a pair of
pointers in the constant pool. This removes the only slightly
dodgy link with the layout of struct TCGHelperInfo.
The re-encode cannot be done in pieces.

With Makefiles that have automatically generated dependencies, you
generated includes are set as dependencies of the Makefile, so that they
are built before everything else and they are available when first
building the .c files.
Alternatively you can use a fine-grained dependency, e.g.
target/arm/translate.o: target/arm/decode-neon-shared.inc.c
With Meson you have only one choice and it is a third option, namely
"build at the beginning of the corresponding target"; the way you
express it is to list the includes in the sources of that target.
The problem is that Meson decides if something is a source vs. a
generated include by looking at the extension: '.c', '.cc', '.m', '.C'
are sources, while everything else is considered an include---including
'.inc.c'.
Use '.c.inc' to avoid this, as it is consistent with our other convention
of using '.rst.inc' for included reStructuredText files. The editorconfig
file is adjusted.

The HPPA backend has been removed by the following commit:
802b508123
tcg-hppa: Remove tcg backend
But some small pieces of the HPPA backend still survived until
today. Since we also do not have support for a HPPA target in
QEMU, we can nowadays safely remove the remaining HPPA parts
(like the disassembler code, or the detection of HPPA in the
configure script).

Rename the per-architecture tcg-target.c files to tcg-target.inc.c.
This makes it clearer that they are not intended to be standalone
C files, but are instead #included into another source file.

Switch the default for qemu_log logging output from "/tmp/qemu.log"
to stderr. This is an incompatible change in some sense, but logging
is mostly used for debugging purposes so it shouldn't affect production
use. The previous behaviour can be obtained by adding "-D /tmp/qemu.log"
to the command line.
This change requires us to:
* update all the documentation/help text (we take the opportunity
to smooth out minor inconsistencies between the phrasing in
linux-user/bsd-user/system help messages)
* make linux-user and bsd-user defer to qemu-log for the default
logging destination rather than overriding it themselves
* ensure that all logfile closing is done via qemu_log_close()
and that that function doesn't close stderr
as well as the obvious change to the behaviour of do_qemu_set_log()
when no logfile name has been specified.

Unlike other tcg target code generators, this one does not generate
machine code for some cpu. It generates machine independent bytecode
which is interpreted later.
This allows running QEMU on any host.
Interpreted bytecode is slower than direct execution of generated
machine code.
