lib: Remove check_path function, limitation is colon, not comma (RHBZ#811649).

Remove the bogus check_path function and move the functionality into
the two places where it was being used.

  qemu -cdrom ,

works fine, I tested it.

Colon cannot be used in a block device filename anywhere, since the
qemu block driver interprets it as a prefix.  There is no known way to
work around this problem.  I checked this is true with kwolf.

Comma is fine in -drive options, provided it is escaped by doubling it.
