5de78f181a board/qemu/start-qemu.sh.in: support launching with host system's qemu
Provides the ability to use a host system's QEMU. While a Buildroot
generated QEMU should work for most cases, a developer may wish to use
the system's QEMU for options which may not have been configured in the
Buildroot's QEMU build (e.g. configuring a different display mode).

16c497e0a6 board/qemu/start-qemu.sh.in: rework argument handling
Provides the ability to forward command line options directly to QEMU.
When invoking `start-qemu.sh`, users can forward arguments by adding a
double dash (`--`) into the argument set, and any trailing arguments
will be forwarded into QEMU. For example, `start-qemu.sh -- --help`.

The original implementation supported a "serial-only" command line
argument to help run in a non-graphical mode for some use cases. These
changes try to promote a newly added `--serial-only` argument to drive
this mode; that being said, a `serial-only` argument will still be
accepted for backwards compatibility.

[yann.morin.1998@free.fr:
  - drop the warning: unknown options cause 'exit 1' already, and any
    leftover is explicitly for qemu.
  - use false/true instead of 0/1

d9b244d8a3 board/qemu: define start qemu script outside of post-image script
The following moves the definition of the QEMU board's `start-qemu.sh`
helper script from being inlined in the post-image script into its own
file. This should, in theory, make it easier to maintain the script in
the future.

[yann.morin.1998@free.fr:
  - don't sub-shell in the script
  - merge all 3 sed calls into one
  - create dest file with the sed, don't cp first
  - also substitute HOST_DIR
  - fix shellcheck
