hw/nvme: deprecate the use-intel-id compatibility parameter
Since version 5.2 commit 6eb7a071292a ("hw/block/nvme: change controller pci id"), the emulated NVMe controller has defaulted to a non-Intel PCI identifier. Deprecate the compatibility parameter so we can get rid of it once and for all. Reviewed-by: Philippe Mathieu-Daudé <f4bug@amsat.org> Signed-off-by: Klaus Jensen <k.jensen@samsung.com>
