[PATCH] RISC-V: Schedule SBI-0.1 for removal

[Palmer Dabbelt <palmer@rivosinc.com>]

We've said we're going to deprecate SBI-0.1 for a while now, but I
didn't find that written down anywhere.  So mark SBI-0.1 as deprecated
and print a timeline for that deprecation on systems that probe it.

This also hides the Kconfig behind EXPERT, in the hope that doing so
will poke users to notice the deprecation.

I don't know if there's some normal way to mark things as deprecated,
this is just the best I could come up with this morning.
