The versioned 'pc' and 'q35' machines up to 2.12 been marked
as deprecated two releases ago, and are older than 6 years,
so according to our support policy we can remove them.

This series only includes the 2.6 and 2.7 machines removal,
as it is a big enough number of LoC removed. Rest will
follow.
