semihosting: add --semihosting-config arg sub-argument
Add new "arg" sub-argument to the --semihosting-config allowing the user
to pass multiple input arguments separately. It is required for example
by UHI semihosting to construct argc and argv.
Also, update ARM semihosting to support new option (at the moment it is
the only target which cares about arguments).
If the semihosting is enabled and no semihosting args have been specified,
then fall back to -kernel/-append. The -append string is split on whitespace
before initializing semihosting.argv[1..n]; this is different from what
QEMU MIPS machines' pseudo-bootloaders do (i.e. argv[1] contains the whole
-append), but is more intuitive from UHI user's point of view and Linux
kernel just does not care as it concatenates argv[1..n] into single cmdline
string anyway.
