doc: qemu-riscv: Update documentation for QEMU spike machine

We can now use same U-Boot images on both QEMU virt machine and QEMU
spike machine so let's update the QEMU RISC-V documentation.

QEMU RISC-V
===========
QEMU for RISC-V supports a special 'virt' machine designed for emulation and
virtualization purposes. This document describes how to run U-Boot under it.
Both 32-bit and 64-bit targets are supported, running in either machine or
supervisor mode.
QEMU for RISC-V supports a special 'virt' machine and 'spike' machine designed
for emulation and virtualization purposes. This document describes how to run
U-Boot under it. Both 32-bit and 64-bit targets are supported, running in
either machine or supervisor mode.
The QEMU virt machine models a generic RISC-V virtual machine with support for
the VirtIO standard networking and block storage devices. It has CLINT, PLIC,
16550A UART devices in addition to VirtIO and it also uses device-tree to pass
configuration information to guest software. It implements RISC-V privileged
configuration information to guest software. It implements the latest RISC-V
privileged architecture.
See :doc:`../../develop/devicetree/dt_qemu` for information on how to see
the devicetree actually generated by QEMU.
architecture spec v1.10.
The QEMU spike machine models a minimalistic RISC-V virtual machine with
only CLINT and HTIF devices. It also uses device-tree to pass configuration
information to guest software and implements the latest RISC-V privileged
architecture.
