FEAT_CMOW introduces support for controlling cache maintenance
instructions executed in EL0/1 and is mandatory from Armv8.8.
On real hardware, the main use for this feature is to prevent processes
from invalidating or flushing cache lines for addresses they only have
read permission, which can impact the performance of other processes.
QEMU implements all cache instructions as NOPs, and, according to rule
[1], which states that generating any Permission fault when a cache
instruction is implemented as a NOP is implementation-defined, no
Permission fault is generated for any cache instruction when it lacks
read and write permissions.
QEMU does not model any cache topology, so the PoU and PoC are before
any cache, and rules [2] apply. These rules state that generating any
MMU fault for cache instructions in this topology is also
implementation-defined. Therefore, for FEAT_CMOW, we do not generate any
MMU faults either, instead, we only advertise it in the feature
register.

[2] Rules R_MZTNR and R_DNZYL of section D8.14.3, Arm ARM K.a.

The fby35 machine is not implemented in hw/arm/aspeed.c,
but its documentation is currently stuck at the end of aspeed.rst,
formatted in a way that it gets its own heading in the top-level
list of boards in target-arm.html.
We don't have any other boards that we document like this; split it

The default behavior of some Aspeed machines is to boot from the eMMC
device, like the rainier-bmc. Others like ast2600-evb could also boot
from eMMC if the HW strapping boot-from-eMMC bit was set. Add a
property to set or unset this bit. This is useful to test boot images.
For now, only activate this property on the ast2600-evb and rainier-bmc
machines for which eMMC images are available or can be built.

For some use-cases, it is helpful to have more than one UART
available to the guest. If the second UART slot is not already used
for a TrustZone Secure-World-only UART, create it as a NonSecure UART
only when the user provides a serial backend (e.g. via a second
-serial command line option).
This avoids problems where existing guest software only expects a
single UART, and gets confused by the second UART in the DTB. The
major example of this is older EDK2 firmware, which will send the
GRUB bootloader output to UART1 and the guest serial output to UART0.
Users who want to use both UARTs with a guest setup including EDK2
are advised to update to EDK2 release edk2-stable202311 or newer.
(The prebuilt EDK2 blobs QEMU upstream provides are new enough.)
The relevant EDK2 changes are the ones described here:

FEAT_WFxT introduces new instructions WFIT and WFET, which are like
the existing WFI and WFE but allow the guest to pass a timeout value
in a register. The instructions will wait for an interrupt/event as
usual, but will also stop waiting when the value of CNTVCT_EL0 is
greater than or equal to the specified timeout value.
We implement WFIT by setting up a timer to expire at the right
point; when the timer expires it sets the EXITTB interrupt, which
will cause the CPU to leave the halted state. If we come out of
halt for some other reason, we unset the pending timer.
We implement WFET as a nop, which is architecturally permitted and
matches the way we currently make WFE a nop.

FEAT_Spec_FPACC is a feature describing speculative behaviour in the
event of a PAC authontication failure when FEAT_FPACCOMBINE is
implemented. FEAT_Spec_FPACC means that the speculative use of
pointers processed by a PAC Authentication is not materially
different in terms of the impact on cached microarchitectural state
(caches, TLBs, etc) between passing and failing of the PAC
Authentication.
QEMU doesn't do speculative execution, so we can advertise
this feature.

FEAT_ETS2 is a tighter set of guarantees about memory ordering
involving translation table walks than the old FEAT_ETS; FEAT_ETS has
been retired from the Arm ARM and the old ID_AA64MMFR1.ETS == 1
now gives no greater guarantees than ETS == 0.
FEAT_ETS2 requires:
* the virtual address of a load or store that appears in program
order after a DSB cannot be translated until after the DSB
completes (section B2.10.9)
* TLB maintenance operations that only affect translations without
execute permission are guaranteed complete after a DSB
(R_BLDZX)
* if a memory access RW2 is ordered-before memory access RW2,
then RW1 is also ordered-before any translation table walk
generated by RW2 that generates a Translation, Address size
or Access flag fault (R_NNFPF, I_CLGHP)
As with FEAT_ETS, QEMU is already compliant, because we do not
reorder translation table walk memory accesses relative to other
memory accesses, and we always guarantee to have finished TLB
maintenance as soon as the TLB op is done.
Update the documentation to list FEAT_ETS2 instead of the
no-longer-existent FEAT_ETS, and update the 'max' CPU ID registers.

As of version DDI0487K.a of the Arm ARM, some architectural features
which previously didn't have official names have been named. Add
these to the list of features which QEMU's TCG emulation supports.
Mostly these are features which we thought of as part of baseline 8.0
support. For SVE and SVE2, the names have been brought into line
with the FEAT_* naming convention of other extensions, and some
sub-components split into separate FEAT_ items. In a few cases (eg
FEAT_CCIDX, FEAT_DPB2) the omission from our list was just an oversight.

Features supported :
- the 8 STM32L4x5 GPIOs are initialized with their reset values
(except IDR, see below)
- input mode : setting a pin in input mode "externally" (using input
irqs) results in an out irq (transmitted to SYSCFG)
- output mode : setting a bit in ODR sets the corresponding out irq
(if this line is configured in output mode)
- pull-up, pull-down
- push-pull, open-drain
Difference with the real GPIOs :
- Alternate Function and Analog mode aren't implemented :
pins in AF/Analog behave like pins in input mode
- floating pins stay at their last value
- register IDR reset values differ from the real one :
values are coherent with the other registers reset values
and the fact that AF/Analog modes aren't implemented
- setting I/O output speed isn't supported
- locking port bits isn't supported
- ADC function isn't supported
- GPIOH has 16 pins instead of 2 pins
- writing to registers LCKR, AFRL, AFRH and ASCR is ineffective

1. FIFOs are not used. All sends and receives are done directly.

Add a note on CPU features that are off by default in `virt` machines.
Some CPU features will remain off even if a CPU-capable CPU (e.g.,
`-cpu max`) is selected because they require support in both the CPU
itself and in the wider system. Therefore, the user, besides selecting a
CPU that supports such features, must also turn on the feature using a
