Uh, when did we start to add "dropped in" to our doc comments?

We should either do this systematically, or not at all.  If the former,
we have quite a few "dropped in" to add belatedly.

I vote for "not at all".

    qapi: Move query-target from misc.json to machine.json
    
    Move query-target and its return type TargetInfo from misc.json to
    machine.json, where they are covered by MAINTAINERS section "Machine
    core".  Also move its implementation from arch_init.c to
    hw/core/machine-qmp-cmds, where it is likewise covered.
    
    All users of SysEmuTarget are now in machine.json.  Move it there from
    common.json.

    Record history of ppcemb target in common.json
    
    We recently removed the long deprecated "ppcemb" target.  This adds a
    comment in common.json about the SysEmuTarget type, recording when it was
    removed.

    qapi/net.json: Fix the version number of the "vlan" removal
    
    "vlan" will be dropped in 2.13, not in 2.12. And while we're at it,
    use the better wording "dropped in" instead of "removed with" (also
    for the "dump" removal).

    ui: drop altgr and altgr_r QKeyCodes
    
    The right alt key (alt_r aka KEY_RIGHTALT) is used for AltGr.
    The altgr and altgr_r keys simply don't exist.  Drop them.
