Deprecate the ARM simulator

The ARM simulator is no longer able to simulator modern ARM cores, so it
is being deprecated.  Once this change has been active for a while - and
assuming that no problems have been found - the ARm simulator codebase
will be removed.

	* configure.ac: Add sim to noconfigdirs for ARM targets.
	* configure: Regenerate.
