The 'singlestep' HMP command is confusing, because it doesn't actually have anything to do with single-stepping the CPU. What it does do is force TCG emulation to put one guest instruction in each TB, which can be useful in some situations. Create a new HMP command 'one-insn-per-tb', so we can document that 'singlestep' is just a deprecated synonym for it, and eventually perhaps drop it. We aren't obliged to do deprecate-and-drop for HMP commands, but it's easy enough to do so, so we do. Signed-off-by:
