[kvmtool,0/6] Various convenience fixes

Message

As I found myself using kvmtool more often in the last weeks, I got more
and more annoyed by some smaller "ticks" that kvmtool shows.

So this is an attempt to post various smaller fixes I gathered up over
the years, but never found worth enough to send out:

- drop unnecessarily detailed debug output
- add /chosen/stdout-path node in .dtb
- honour make -s switch
- remove pointless kvmtool version number
- improve meaningless PMU error message
- introduce autodetection of supported GIC type

Please have a look!

Cheers,
Andre.

I've applied (1) and (5), leaving comments on the others.
