From: Thomas Huth <thuth@redhat.com>
We are going to remove the microblazeel target, so the test is not
required anymore. The little endian mode is tested already via the
"microblaze" target, so we don't lose any test coverage here.
While we're at it, simplify the "microblaze" target test now (in the
file tests/functional/microblaze/test_s3adsp1800.py) since we don't
need the separate super-class here anymore.

The "petalogix-ml605" boot-serial-test can be run with the
"microblaze" target. The remaining tests can simply be dropped
now that we are going to remove the "microblazeel" target.

Since we're going to remove the qemu-system-microblazeel binary,
remove the related tests from the CI jobs now (or switch to "microblaze"
where it is appropriate).
Note: Since "build-system-ubuntu" does not have as many targets as
"build-system-fedora", we turn the "microblazeel-softmmu" into a
"microblaze-softmmu" in the ubuntu job, and remove the corresponding
target from the fedora job instead, so that the load is more balanced
now.

It's been deprecated since two releases, so it should be fine to
remove this now. Users can use the qemu-system-microblaze binary
instead that can handle both endiannesses now.

+The ``qemu-system-microblaze`` binary can emulate little-endian machines
+now, too, so the separate binary ``qemu-system-microblazeel`` (with the
+``el`` suffix) for little-endian targets is not required anymore. The
+``petalogix-s3adsp1800`` machine can now be switched to little endian by
+setting its ``endianness`` property to ``little``.

Isn't this to test the qemu-microblazeel user-mode binary?

Oops, yes, I guess so ... so this hunk has to be removed from the patch,
thanks for spotting it!
