Revert "qemu: propagate bridge MTU into qemu "host_mtu" option"
This reverts commit 2841e675. It turns out that adding the host_mtu field to the PCI capabilities in the guest bumps the length of PCI capabilities beyond the 32 byte boundary, so the virtio-net device gets 64 bytes of ioport space instead of 32, which offsets the address of all the other following devices. Migration doesn't work very well when the location and length of PCI capabilities of devices is changed between source and destination. This means that we need to make sure that the absence/presence of host_mtu on the qemu commandline always matches between source and destination, which means that we need to make setting of host_mtu an opt-in thing (it can't happen automatically when the bridge being used has a non-default MTU, which is what commit 2841e675 implemented). I do want to re-implement this feature with an <mtu auto='on'/> setting, but probably won't backport that to any stable branches, so I'm first reverting the original commit, and that revert can be pushed to the few releases that have been made since the original (3.1.0 - 3.3.0) Resolves: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1449346 (cherry picked from commit 77780a29edace958a1f931d3281b962be4f5290e)

LibVirt : simple API for virtualization Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.

Description
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the
virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER
Hypervisor.
