It seems the editor specific keywords have been deprecated in the main
editorconfig plugin:

  https://github.com/editorconfig/editorconfig-emacs#file-type-file_type_ext-file_type_emacs



Update the keywords to the suggested one and point users at the
extension.

With Makefiles that have automatically generated dependencies, you
generated includes are set as dependencies of the Makefile, so that they
are built before everything else and they are available when first
building the .c files.

Alternatively you can use a fine-grained dependency, e.g.

        target/arm/translate.o: target/arm/decode-neon-shared.inc.c

With Meson you have only one choice and it is a third option, namely
"build at the beginning of the corresponding target"; the way you
express it is to list the includes in the sources of that target.

The problem is that Meson decides if something is a source vs. a
generated include by looking at the extension: '.c', '.cc', '.m', '.C'
are sources, while everything else is considered an include---including
'.inc.c'.

Use '.c.inc' to avoid this, as it is consistent with our other convention
of using '.rst.inc' for included reStructuredText files.  The editorconfig
file is adjusted.

We are starting to add assembler foe tests/tcg so lets make sure we
get the mode right.

Some time ago, I proposed to use an (eval) in .dir-locals.el to set
the mode for all json files and Makefile. Unfortunately, this isn't
safe, and emacs will prompt the user, which isn't very friendly.

Fortunately, editorconfig provides a special config key which does
allow to set the emacs mode. Add a few missing entries and set the
emacs mode.

Update top comment to provide a short summary about the file and the
IDE plugins while at it.

Add a .editorconfig file for qemu.  Specifies the indent and tab style
for various files (C code and Makefiles for starters).  Most popular
editors support this either natively or via plugin.

Check http://editorconfig.org/

 for details.
