smp: replace commands smp_on/smp_off with "smp [on|off]"
Seams over-engineered having two separate commands to turn SMP on/off. Plus it is missing the possibility to dump the current status of SMP and would be weird adding an additional command for it. Moreover, such commands are replicated in few targets so it would make sense centralizing them. - Deprecate the commands "smp_on" and "smp_off". - Add a new command "smp" that accepts optional parameters "[on|off]" and prints the SMP status when run without parameters. This replaces the two commands above. - Put the deprecated and the new command handlers in smp.c - Update the documentation, except for mips_m4k, since it is not available yet. - Promote the macro foreach_smp_target to global context and use it where possible.
