Deprecate our TileGX target support:
* we have no active maintainer for it
* it has had essentially no contributions (other than tree-wide cleanups
and similar) since it was first added
* the Linux kernel dropped support in 2018, as has glibc
Note the deprecation in the manual, but don't try to print a warning
when QEMU runs -- printing unsuppressable messages is more obtrusive
for linux-user mode than it would be for system-emulation mode, and
it doesn't seem worth trying to invent a new suppressible-error
system for linux-user just for this.
