machine: Deprecate "parameter=0" SMP configurations
In the SMP configuration, we should either provide a topology
parameter with a reasonable value (greater than zero) or just
omit it and QEMU will compute the missing value.
The users shouldn't provide a configuration with any parameter
of it specified as zero (e.g. -smp 8,sockets=0) which could
possibly cause unexpected results in the -smp parsing. So we
deprecate this kind of configurations since 6.2 by adding the
explicit sanity check.
