2021-08-02docs/about/removed-features: Fix markup errorPeter Maydell
The section describing the removed feature "-usbdevice ccid" had a typo so the markup started with single backtick and ended with double backtick; fix it.

2021-08-02docs: Format literals correctlyPeter Maydell
In rST markup, single backticks `like this` represent "interpreted text", which can be handled as a bunch of different things if tagged with a specific "role": https://docutils.sourceforge.io/docs/ref/rst/restructuredtext.html#interpreted-text (the most common one for us is "reference to a URL, which gets hyperlinked"). The default "role" if none is specified is "title_reference", intended for references to book or article titles, and it renders into the HTML as <cite>...</cite> (usually comes out as italics). This commit fixes various places in the manual which were using single backticks when double backticks (for literal text) were intended, and covers those files where only one or two instances of these errors were made.

2021-07-18docs: Add some actual About text to about/index.rstPeter Maydell
Add some text to About to act as a brief introduction to the QEMU manual and to make the about page a bit less of an abrupt start to it.

2021-07-18docs: Move deprecation, build and license info out of system/Peter Maydell
Now that we have a single Sphinx manual rather than multiple manuals, we can provide a better place for "common to all of QEMU" information like the deprecation notices, build platforms, license information, which we currently have in the system/ manual even though it applies to all of QEMU. Create a new directory about/ on the same level as system/, user/, etc, and move these documents there.
