The qemustart script currently picks the ext4 filesystem rather than
squashfs, while the latter is default for nearly all OpenWrt targets.
Change the default behaviour of qemustart to be in line with the rest.

Explicitly set the QEMU cpu type and support the MIPS R2 ISA, for both
64-bit and 32-bit targets. The later previously supported MIPS R2 by
implicit default.
This is needed after commit 93608697f3 ("malta: update MIPS64 ISA to R2"),
otherwise booting malta images with scripts/qemustart will hang.

qemustart allows easy testing of created images via `qemu`. The script
automatically selects created images and can setup e.g. networks.
As the x86 target now uses the generic image.mk the profile appears also
in the image name, this is *generic*.
Add the profile name to the qemustart script so it still finds the file.

We only enabled pcnet driver for malta machine, and x86/legacy target
was supposed to only support e1000 model

This should make it easier to set up and possibly provide a "work out of
the box" experience for most test usage. Typical wan&lan networking
setup is only two characters argument away.

Commit 8bf500eb79 added support for qemu usage without networking
support but broke networking support as -n and -z do not work with
unquoted argument; fix this by quoting the arguments.

Currently it's not possible to test boot squashfs root images, so this
patch now allows this use case as well.

For basic tests it's not necessary to have the networking setup and this
allows testing as a normal user as well, without root privileges.
So this patch adds `--no-network` long option or `-n` short option,
which allows starting QEMU without network.
