zicond is now codegen supported in both llvm and gcc.

This change allows seamless enabling/testing of zicond in downstream
projects. e.g. currently riscv-gnu-toolchain parses elf attributes
to create a cmdline for qemu but fails short of enabling it because of
the "x-" prefix.

It is still not in

Right, its been frozen since April though and with support trickling in 
rest of tooling it becomes harder to test.
I don't know what exactly QEMU's policy is on this ?

IIUC we'd historically marked stuff as non-experimental when it's 
frozen, largely because ratification is such a nebulous process.  
There's obviously risk there, but there's risk to anything.  Last I can 
find is 260b594d8a ("RISC-V: Add Zawrs ISA extension support"), which 
specifically calls out Zawrs as frozen and IIUC adds support without the 
"x-" prefix.

I can't find anything written down about it, though...

If that's the case then I think it's sensible to remove the 'experimental' status
of zicond as well.

As soon as we agree on an official policy I'll do a doc update. Thanks,

Thanks.  We should probably give Alistair some time to chime in, it's 
still pretty early there.

Frozen should be enough to remove the `x-`. We do have it written down
at: https://wiki.qemu.org/Documentation/Platforms/RISCV#RISC-V_Foundation_Extensions
