print meaningful error message in case of --disable-vhost-net
When qemu gets compiled without support of vhost-net, any attempt to use it fails with a very clear error message: qemu-system-x86_64: -netdev ...,vhost=on: vhost-net requested but could not be initialized there's absolutely no reason given _why_ it coult not be initialized, and even strace'ing the process in question does not reveal any errors. So print a message telling what's going on. Signed-off-by: Michael Tokarev <mjt@tls.msk.ru> Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>
