The 0.3.0 release (re)supports booting stock Ubuntu images so users

prefer Cloud Hypervisor when referring to the project.

The command which is mentioned in the README is wrong. We have two
cofigs one for x86_64 and another for aarh64. Previously it was a single
config. After adding the configs the read me was not modified. This
patch fixes the issue.

Since we only keep one single version of the kernel config file in our
repository, there is no reason to keep the filename complex.

The kernel version is updated from 5.5-rc1 to 5.6-rc4, including the
updated kernel config file.
The kernel branch contains virtio-fs, virtio-iommu and virtio-mem
patches that are not upstream yet. It also contains one fix for
virtio-vsock which will be merged upstream in the next release.

Update all references to the new repository locations. Many of these will
redirect however the one used for the hypervisor-fw binary does not so
this is required to allow the builds to pass.

supported by cloud-hypervisor VMM.
It needs to be updated anytime a new device will be added in the future.

The firmware has been recently updated to find the EFI partition, no
matter if the disk is not the first one of the list.

Having the virtual IOMMU created with --iommu is one thing, but we also
need a way to decide if a virtio-blk device should be attached to this
virtual IOMMU or not. That's why we introduce an extra option "iommu"
with the value "on" or "off". By default, the device is not attached,
which means "iommu=off".
One side effect of this new option is that we had to introduce a new
option for the disk path, simply called "path=".
