As discussed in #816, this PR brings a couple of enhancements to the Simulation section of the User Guide.
On the one hand, an admonition is added for users to know that using instructions corresponding to unsupported/disabled extensions will make the processor hung and the simulation will timeout.
On the other hand, the recommended MARCH to build hello_world is changed not to use extension C, since that's disabled in the simple testbench.
