Applied to master, thanks. I was initially a bit confused because all
those readme.txt files for Qemu configurations are used in our Gitlab
CI infra to automatically boot the resulting kernel/rootfs images in
Qemu, and the build/test was working fine in our CI.

Turns out that board/qemu/post-image.sh strips output/images/, and then
board/qemu/start-qemu.sh.in chdir into ${BINARIES_DIR}. So indeed, it
makes sense that both this incorrect readme.txt, and all the other ones
for Qemu defconfigs, that had output/images, worked.
