Deprecate Unicore32 port
Deprecate our Unicore32 target support:
* the Linux kernel dropped support for unicore32 in commit
05119217a9bd199c for its 5.9 release (with rationale in the
cover letter: https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/8/3/232 )
* there is apparently no upstream toolchain that can create unicore32
binaries
* the maintainer doesn't seem to have made any contributions to
QEMU since the port first landed in 2012
* nobody else seems to have made changes to the unicore code except
for generic cleanups either
