hw/arm: Add minimal support for the B-L475E-IOT01A board

This commit adds a new B-L475E-IOT01A board using the STM32L475VG SoC
as well as a dedicated documentation file.
The implementation is derived from the Netduino Plus 2 machine.
There are no peripherals implemented yet, only memory regions.

+B-L475E-IOT01A IoT Node (``b-l475e-iot01a``)
+============================================
+
+The B-L475E-IOT01A IoT Node uses the STM32L475VG SoC which is based on
+ARM Cortex-M4F core. It is part of STMicroelectronics
+:doc:`STM32 boards </system/arm/stm32>` and more specifically the STM32L4
+ultra-low power series. The STM32L4x5 chip runs at up to 80 MHz and
+integrates 128 KiB of SRAM and up to 1MiB of Flash. The B-L475E-IOT01A board
+namely features 64 Mibit QSPI Flash, BT, WiFi and RF connectivity,
+USART, I2C, SPI, CAN and USB OTG, as well as a variety of sensors.
+
+Supported devices
+"""""""""""""""""
+
+Currently, B-L475E-IOT01A machine's implementation is minimal,
+it only supports the following device:
+
+- Cortex-M4F based STM32L4x5 SoC
+
+Missing devices
+"""""""""""""""
+
+The B-L475E-IOT01A does *not* support the following devices:
+
+- Extended interrupts and events controller (EXTI)
+- Reset and clock control (RCC)
+- Serial ports (UART)
+- System configuration controller (SYSCFG)
+- General-purpose I/Os (GPIO)
+- Analog to Digital Converter (ADC)
+- SPI controller
+- Timer controller (TIMER)
+
+See the complete list of unimplemented peripheral devices
+in the STM32L4x5 module : ``./hw/arm/stm32l4x5_soc.c``
+
+Boot options
+""""""""""""
+
+The B-L475E-IOT01A machine can be started using the ``-kernel``
+option to load a firmware. Example:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+  $ qemu-system-arm -M b-l475e-iot01a -kernel firmware.bin
