docs: Deprecate the qemu-system-microblazeel binary
The (former big-endian only) binary qemu-system-microblaze can
handle both endiannesses nowadays, so we don't need the separate
qemu-system-microblazeel binary for little endian anymore. Let's
deprecate it to avoid unnecessary compilation and test time in
the future.

+
+The ``qemu-system-microblaze`` binary can emulate little-endian machines
+now, too, so the separate binary ``qemu-system-microblazeel`` (with the
+``el`` suffix) for little-endian targets is not required anymore. The
+``petalogix-s3adsp1800`` machine can now be switched to little endian by
+setting its ``endianness`` property to ``little``.
