Error out when custom tap device path makes no sense

Browse Source 
It is only usable for NETWORK and BRIDGE type interfaces.
Error out when trying to start a domain where the custom
tap device path is specified for interfaces of other types,
or when the daemon is not privileged.

Note that this cannot be checked at definition time, because
the comparison is against actual type.

For tuning the backend of the network, the <code>backend</code> element
can be used. The <code>vhost</code> attribute can override the default vhost
device path (<code>/dev/vhost-net</code>) for devices with <code>virtio</code> model.
Supported attributes are <code>tap</code> and <code>vhost</code>,
allowing to override the default devices for creating tap and vhost devices.
The <code>tap</code> attribute overrides the tun/tap device path (default:
<code>/dev/net/tun</code>) for network and bridge interfaces. This does not work
in session mode.
