Nicholas Piggin e6fdfb8433 accel/tcg: mttcg remove false-negative halted assertion
mttcg asserts that an execution ending with EXCP_HALTED must have
cpu->halted. However between the event or instruction that sets
cpu->halted and requests exit and the assertion here, an
asynchronous event could clear cpu->halted.

This leads to crashes running AIX on ppc/pseries because it uses
H_CEDE/H_PROD hcalls, where H_CEDE sets self->halted = 1 and
H_PROD sets other cpu->halted = 0 and kicks it.

H_PROD could be turned into an interrupt to wake, but several other
places in ppc, sparc, and semihosting follow what looks like a similar
pattern setting halted = 0 directly. So remove this assertion.
