conf: don't allow connecting upstream-port directly to pce-expander-bus

I apparently misunderstood Marcel's description of what could and
couldn't be plugged into qemu's pxb-pcie controller (known as
pcie-expander-bus in libvirt) - I specifically allowed directly
connecting a pcie-switch-upstream-port, and it turns out that causes
the guest kernel to crash.

This patch forbids such a connection, and updates the xml docs
appropriately.

2nd bus-number is just being reserved for the pcie-root-port
that must necessarily be connected to the bus in order to
actually plug in an endpoint device. If you intend to plug
multiple devices into a pcie-expander-bus, you must instead
connect a pcie-switch-upstream-port to the
pcie-expander-bus, and multiple pcie-switch-downstream-ports
to the pcie-switch-downstream-port, and of course for this
to work properly, you will need to decrease the
pcie-expander-bus' busNr accordingly so that there are
enough unused bus numbers above it to accomodate giving out
one bus number for the upstream-port and one for each
downstream-port).
