pc: get rid of builtin pvpanic for "-M pc-1.5"
This causes two slight backwards-incompatibilities between "-M pc-1.5"
and 1.5's "-M pc":
(1) a fw_cfg file is removed with this patch. This is only a problem
if migration stops the virtual machine exactly during fw_cfg enumeration.
(2) after migration, a VM created without an explicit "-device pvpanic"
will stop reporting panics to management.
The first problem only occurs if migration is done at a very, very
early point (and I'm not sure it can happen in practice for reasonable-size
VMs, since it will likely take more time to send the RAM to destination,
than it will take for BIOS to scan fw_cfg).
The second problem only occurs if the guest panics _and_ has a guest
driver _and_ management knows to look at the crash event, so it is
mostly theoretical at this point in time.
Thus keep the code simple, and pretend it was never broken.
