docs/system/target-sparc: Improve the Sparc documentation

Add some words about how to enable or disable boolean features,
and remove the note about a Linux kernel being available on the
QEMU website (they have been removed long ago already), and the
note about NetBSD and OpenBSD still having issues (they should
work fine nowadays).

 The emulation is somewhat complete. SMP up to 16 CPUs is supported, but
 Linux limits the number of usable CPUs to 4.
 
+The list of available CPUs can be viewed by starting QEMU with ``-cpu help``.
