For platforms which have apicv post-interrupt capability;
ACRN would use posted-interrupt to notify another vCPU which in non-root mode;
or sync interrupt for itself when it in root-mode.However,QEMU could not handle this properly.
So, remove the post-interrupt capability in qemu cmdline.

Update the "Enable ACRN Over QEMU/KVM" tutorial:
* Remove the steps explaining how to add the Virtio blk driver
to the Service VM kernel. It is now part of the default
configuration
* Add a note to make it more obvious that the tutorial assumes
that the compilation of ACRN and its kernel is done *inside*
the QEMU VM that will serve as the Service VM for ACRN

While we hoped to make the headings consistent over time while doing
other edits, we should instead just make the squirrels happy and do them
all at once or they'll likely never be made consistent.
A python script was used to find the headings, and then a call to
https://pypi.org/project/titlecase to transform the title. A visual
inspection was used to tweak a few unexpected resulting titles.

Replace white/black master/slave terms with alternatives. We're not
changing "master" when used in the context of GitHub branches. GitHub
advises they have a plan to help this transition. In the text body we
rever to the "master" branch as the "main" branch, but leave any urls or
code-block commands still using "master".
