Diagnose the case where the user asked for a NIC via "-net nic"
but the board didn't instantiate that NIC (for example where the
user asked for two NICs but the board only supports one). Note
that this diagnostic doesn't apply to NICs created through -device,
because those are always instantiated.

With -netdev, virtio devices present offload
features to guest, depending on the backend used.
Thus, removing host netdev peer while guest is
active leads to guest-visible inconsistency and/or crashes.
As a solution, while guest (NIC) peer device exists,
we prevent the host peer from being deleted.
This patch does this by adding peer_deleted flag in nic state:
if host device is going away while guest device
is around, set this flag and keep a shell of
the host device around for as long as guest device exists.
The link is put down so all packets will get discarded.
At the moment, management can detect that device deletion
is delayed by doing info net. As a next step, we shall add
commands that control hotplug/unplug without
removing the device, and an event to report that
guest has responded to the hotplug event.

There are many problems with net_set_boot_mask():
1) It is broken when using the device model instead of "-net nic". Example:
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -device rtl8139,vlan=0,id=net0,mac=52:54:00:82:41:fd,bus=pci.0,addr=0x4 -net user,vlan=0,name=hostnet0 -vnc 0.0.0.0:0 -boot n
Cannot boot from non-existent NIC
$
2) The mask was previously used to set which boot ROMs were supposed to be
loaded, but this was changed long time ago. Now all ROM images are loaded,
and SeaBIOS takes care of jumping to the right boot entry point depending on
the boot settings.
3) Interpretation and validation of the boot parameter letters is done on
the machine type code. Examples: PC accepts only a,b,c,d,n as valid boot
device letters. mac99 accepts only a,b,c,d,e,f.
As a side-effect of this change, qemu-kvm won't abort anymore if using "-boot n"
on a machine with no network devices. Checking if the requested boot device is
valid is now a task for the BIOS or the machine-type code.

net_check_clients() prints this when an VLAN has host devices, but no
guest devices. It uses VLANState members nb_guest_devs and
nb_host_devs to keep track of these devices. However, -device does
not update nb_guest_devs, only net_init_nic() does that, for -net nic.
Check the VLAN clients directly, and remove the counters.
