tcg: Remove TCI experimental status
The following commits (released in v6.0.0) made raised the quality of the TCI backend to the other TCG architectures, thus is is not considerated experimental anymore: - c6fbea47664..2f74f45e32b - dc09f047edd..9e9acb7b348 - b6139eb0578..2fc6f16ca5e - dbcbda2cd84..5e8892db93f Signed-off-by: Philippe Mathieu-Daudé <f4bug@amsat.org> Message-Id: <20211106111457.517546-1-f4bug@amsat.org> Signed-off-by: Richard Henderson <richard.henderson@linaro.org>

+Other host architectures are not supported. It is possible to build QEMU system
+emulation on an unsupported host architecture using the configure
+``--enable-tcg-interpreter`` option to enable the TCI support, but note that
+this is very slow and is not recommended for normal use. QEMU user emulation

Non-supported architectures may be removed in the future following the
:ref:`deprecation process<Deprecated features>`.
