amd_iommu: Document '-device amd-iommu' common options

Document the common parameters used when emulating AMD vIOMMU.
Besides the two amd-iommu specific options: 'xtsup' and 'dma-remap', the
the generic x86 IOMMU option 'intremap' is also included, since it is
typically specified in QEMU command line examples and mailing list threads.

Accepts either the default root complex (pcie.0) or a
pxb-pcie based root complex.
``-device amd-iommu[,option=...]``
Enables emulation of an AMD-Vi I/O Memory Management Unit (IOMMU).
Only available with ``-machine q35``, it supports the following options:
``dma-remap=on|off`` (default: off)
Support for DMA address translation and access permission checking for
guests attaching passthrough devices to paging domains, using the AMD v1
I/O Page Table format. This enables ``-device vfio-pci,...`` to work
correctly with a guest using the DMA remapping feature of the vIOMMU.
``intremap=on|off`` (default: auto)
Generic x86 IOMMU functionality implemented by ``amd-iommu`` device.
Enables interrupt remapping feature in guests, which is also required to
enable x2apic support.
Currently only available with ``kernel-irqchip=off|split``, it is
automatically enabled when either of those modes is in use, and disabled
with ``kernel-irqchip=on``.
``xtsup=on|off`` (default: off)
Interrupt remapping table supports x2apic mode, enabling the use of
128-bit IRTE format with 32-bit destination field by the guest. Required
to support routing interrupts to vCPUs with APIC IDs larger than 0xff.
