Thomas Petazzoni 72db85e250 configs/qemu_sh4*: switch back to disk emulation
Back in commit
44a6b7866c ("configs/qemu_sh4*: switch
to initramfs"), the Qemu SuperH defconfigs were switched to initramfs
due to a bug in the Qemu disk emulation.

However, the initramfs solution has an issue: if the initramfs is
slightly too large (like just 6 MB!), the system no longer boots.

Since the disk emulation problem has apparently been resolved in Qemu
10 (according to testing), let's switch back to this.

In addition to essentially reverting
44a6b7866c, we also need to adjust the
kernel configuration so that the kernel takes its command line for the
bootloader (in our case from the Qemu -append option). Otherwise an
hardcoded command line is used, which doesn't mount /dev/sda as the
root filesystem.

This update has been tested on Gitlab CI:

Thanks to Romain Naour for pointing to the initramfs size as being the
issue.
