hw: Default -drive to if=ide explicitly where it works
Block backends defined with -drive if=ide are meant to be picked up by
machine initialization code: a suitable frontend gets created and
wired up automatically.
if=ide drives not picked up that way can still be used with -device as
if they had if=none, but that's unclean and best avoided. Unused ones
produce an "Orphaned drive without device" warning.
-drive parameter "if" is optional, and the default depends on the
machine type. If a machine type doesn't specify a default, the
default is "ide".
Many machine types default to if=ide, even though they don't actually
have an IDE controller. A future patch will change these defaults to
something more sensible. To prepare for it, this patch makes default
"ide" explicit for the machines that actually pick up if=ide drives:
* alpha: clipper
* arm/aarch64: spitz borzoi terrier tosa
* i386/x86_64: generic-pc-machine (with concrete subtypes pc-q35-*
pc-i440fx-* pc-* isapc xenfv)
* mips64el: fulong2e
* mips/mipsel/mips64el: malta mips
* ppc/ppc64: mac99 g3beige prep
* sh4/sh4eb: r2d
* sparc64: sun4u sun4v
Note that ppc64 machine powernv already sets an "ide" default
explicitly. Its IDE controller isn't implemented, yet.
