We have two new machine options "aia" and "aia-guests" available
for the RISC-V virt machine so let's document these options.

   When this option is "on", ACLINT devices will be emulated instead of

+- aia=[none|aplic|aplic-imsic]

+  This option allows selecting interrupt controller defined by the AIA
+  (advanced interrupt architecture) specification. The "aia=aplic" selects
+  APLIC (advanced platform level interrupt controller) to handle wired
+  interrupts whereas the "aia=aplic-imsic" selects APLIC and IMSIC (incoming
+  message signaled interrupt controller) to handle both wired interrupts and
+  MSIs. When not specified, this option is assumed to be "none" which selects
+  SiFive PLIC to handle wired interrupts.

+- aia-guests=nnn
+
+  The number of per-HART VS-level AIA IMSIC pages to be emulated for a guest
