doc: qemu: fix and update documentation
The current URL for QEMU_EFI.fd is not found. Update the link to point to the new one. If you run the shell command as instructed, you will see this error: qemu-system-aarch64: keep_bootcon: Could not open 'keep_bootcon': No such file or directory The part "console=ttyAMA0,38400 keep_bootcon root=/dev/vda2" is the kernel parameter, so it must be quoted. As of writing, QEMU v4.2.0 is the latest, but it does not work for TF-A (It has been fixed in the mainline.) QEMU v4.1.0 works fine. With those issues addressed, I succeeded in booting the latest kernel. Tested with QEMU v4.1.0 and Linux 5.5 (defconfig with no modification). Update the tested versions.
