docs: mark CRIS support as deprecated
This might be premature but while streamlining the avocado tests I realised the only tests we have are "check-tcg" ones. The ageing fedora-cris-cross image works well enough for developers but can't be used in CI as we need supported build platforms to build QEMU. Does this mean the writing is on the wall for this architecture? Cc: Rabin Vincent <rabinv@axis.com> Reviewed-by: Thomas Huth <thuth@redhat.com> Acked-by: Edgar E.
