hw/core/machine-smp: Remove deprecated "parameter=0" SMP configurations
The "parameter=0" SMP configurations have been marked as deprecated since v6.2. For these cases, -smp currently returns the warning and adjusts the zeroed parameters to 1 by default. Remove the above compatibility logic in v9.0, and return error directly if any -smp parameter is set as 0.

-Specified CPU topology parameters must be greater than zero.

-In the SMP configuration, users should either provide a CPU topology
-parameter with a reasonable value (greater than zero) or just omit it
-and QEMU will compute the missing value.

-However, historically it was implicitly allowed for users to provide
-a parameter with zero value, which is meaningless and could also possibly
-cause unexpected results in the -smp parsing. So support for this kind of
-configurations (e.g. -smp 8,sockets=0) is deprecated since 6.2 and will
-be removed in the near future, users have to ensure that all the topology
-members described with -smp are greater than zero.
