Make libvirt driver default to virtio for KVM/QEMU NICs
Currently users of KVM/QEMU must set libvirt_use_virtio_for_bridges
to true to get a virtio based NIC, instead of the awful rtl8139
that QEMU defaults to.
Switch libvirt_use_virtio_for_bridges to default to enabled, but
ensure it only takes effect if libvirt_type is 'kvm' or 'qemu'.
Although it is possible that some guest OS do not support virtio
drivers, currently Nova hardcodes use of 'virtio' for disks, so
this change doesn't make the current guest OS support situation
worse.
Obviously in the future, both NIC & disk models will have to be
made fully configurable
