qemu: remove unnecessary setting of tap device online state

The linkstate setting of an <interface> is only meant to change the
online status reported to the guest system by the emulated network
device driver in qemu, but when support for auto-creating tap devices
for <interface type='ethernet'> was added in commit 9717d6, a chunk of
code was also added to qemuDomainChangeNetLinkState() that sets the
online status of the tap device (i.e. the *host* side of the
interface) for type='ethernet'. This was never done for tap devices
used in type='bridge' or type='network' interfaces, nor was it done in
the past for tap devices created by external scripts for
type='ethernet', so we shouldn't be doing it now.

This patch removes the bit of code in qemuDomainChangeNetLinkState()
that modifies online status of the tap device.
