softmmu/vl: Deprecate the -sdl and -curses option
It's not that much complicated to type "-display sdl" or "-display curses", so we should not clutter our main option name space with such simple wrapper options and rather present the users with a concise interface instead. Thus let's deprecate the "-sdl" and "-curses" wrapper options now.
