softmmu/vl: Deprecate the old grab options
The alt_grab and ctrl_grab parameter of the -display sdl option prevent the QAPIfication of the "sdl" part of the -display option, so we should eventually remove them. And since this feature is also rather niche anyway, we should not clutter the top-level option list with these, so let's also deprecate the "-alt-grab" and the "-ctrl-grab" options while we're at it. Once the deprecation period of "alt_grab" and "ctrl_grab" is over, we then can finally switch the -display sdl option to use QAPI internally, too.
