If a domain is initially created without a <vidoe> device but with other
devices (like <interface>), PCI device slots normally reserved for
hardcoded devices (host bridge, IDE controller, video) get assigned to
these. If than later on a <video> device is added without removing the
already assigned <addresse>s, the re-definition fails in
qemuAssignDevicePCISlots() with the error message "Primary video card
must have PCI address 0:0:2.0"

To simplify editing existing domains just reserve the first three slots
for internal usage by setting qemuDomainPCIAddressSet.nextslot = 3.
