A previous update changed "slave" to "secondary", but the code comments
were changed to use "client", so update the documentation to match.

ACRN 2.1 supports two virtual boot modes, deprivilege boot mode and
direct boot mode. The deprivilege boot mode’s main purpose is to support
booting Clear Linux Service VM with UEFI service support, but this
brings scalability problems when porting ACRN to new Intel platforms.
For the 2.2 release, deprivilege mode is removed, and only direct boot
is supported, and with this we've removed support for Clear Linux as the
service VM, which impacts over 50 ACRN documents. This PR removes
documents we don't intend to update, and fixes broken links that would
occur from references to these deleted docs.

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".

Also clear Linux is no longer supported either as SOS or post-launched VM kernel.
- When it mentions clear Linux, mostly replaced by Ubuntu.
- remove all contents re/lated to "UEFI boot".
- remove the term de-privilege mode, and direct mode as well.

As noticed in PR #5134 scenario configurations were moved out of the

repo). Fix references and make them all consistent (referencing

Besides PCI passthru, ACRN can support passthru of a set of page-aligned
MMIO resources. One example is to passthru a TPM device which includes
a set of page aligned MMIO resources.

Instead of linking to a specific doc on projectacrn.org, update to just
link to the area on projectacrn.org/#resources where the roadmap doc can
be found. Also remove mention of 2020 to keep it generic so it won't
need updating in 2021.
