qxl: map rom r/o
Map qxl rom read-only into the guest, so the guest can't tamper with the content. qxl has a shadow copy of the rom to deal with that, but the shadow doesn't cover the mode list. A privilidged user in the guest can manipulate the mode list and that to trick qemu into oob reads, leading to a DoS via segfault if that read access happens to hit unmapped memory.
