Proposed change: Deprecate and remove --enable-unstable. For legacy arguments like --cbmc-args, --visualize, --function and other unstable arguments, the proposal was to create a unstable feature -Z unstable-options.

For things that are only added for debug / development purpose, I propose we add something like Z dev-features.

Motivation: This is the missing part of the Unstable APIs RFC.

For unstable options, require `-Z unstable-options` instead.
`--restrict-vtable` is deprecated in favor of `-Z restrict-vtable`

Towards #2279
Towards #3068 

## Call-out

- We should consider adding a `-Z dev-options` or something similar to
distinguish between unstable features and developer only features, i.e.,
features not meant to be ever stabilized.
