Commit 9b3a35ec82 ("virtio: verify that legacy support is not
accidentally on") added a safety check that requires to set
'disable-legacy=on' on vhost-vsock-pci device:
$ ./qemu-system-x86_64 ... -device vhost-vsock-pci,guest-cid=5
qemu-system-x86_64: -device vhost-vsock-pci,guest-cid=5:
device is modern-only, use disable-legacy=on
virtio-vsock was introduced after the release of VIRTIO 1.0
specifications, so it should be 'modern-only'.
In addition Cornelia verified that forcing a legacy mode on
vhost-vsock-pci device using x86-64 host and s390x guest, so with
different endianness, produces strange behaviours.
This patch forces virtio version 1 and removes the 'transitional_name'
property removing the need to specify 'disable-legacy=on' on
vhost-vsock-pci device.
To avoid migration issues, we force virtio version 1 only when
legacy check is enabled in the new machine types (>= 5.1).
