bsd-user: Add '-one-insn-per-tb' option equivalent to '-singlestep'
The '-singlestep' option is confusing, because it doesn't actually
have anything to do with single-stepping the CPU. What it does do
is force TCG emulation to put one guest instruction in each TB,
which can be useful in some situations.
Create a new command line argument -one-insn-per-tb, so we can
document that -singlestep is just a deprecated synonym for it,
and eventually perhaps drop it.
