Block backends defined with -drive if=ide are meant to be picked up by
machine initialization code: a suitable frontend gets created and
wired up automatically.
if=ide drives not picked up that way can still be used with -device as
if they had if=none, but that's unclean and best avoided. Unused ones
produce an "Orphaned drive without device" warning.
-drive parameter "if" is optional, and the default depends on the
machine type. If a machine type doesn't specify a default, the
default is "ide".
Many machine types implicitly default to if=ide that way, even though
they don't actually have an IDE controller. This makes no sense.
Change the implicit default to if=none. Affected machines:
* all targets: none
* aarch64/arm: akita ast2500 canon cheetah collie connex imx25
integratorcp kzm lm3s6965evb lm3s811evb mainstone musicpal n800 n810

verdex z2
* cris: axis-dev88
* i386/x86_64: xenpv
* lm32: lm32-evr lm32-uclinux milkymist
* m68k: an5206 dummy mcf5208evb
* microblaze/microblazeel: petalogix-ml605 petalogix-s3adsp1800
* mips/mips64/mips64el/mipsel: mipssim
* moxie: moxiesim
* or32: or32-sim
* ppc/ppc64/ppcemb: bamboo ref405ep taihu virtex-ml507
* ppc/ppc64: mpc8544ds ppce500
* sh4/sh4eb: shix
* sparc: leon3_generic
* sparc64: niagara
* tricore: tricore_testboard
* unicore32: puv3
* xtensa/xtensaeb: kc705 lx200 lx60 ml605 sim
None of these machines have an IDE controller, let alone code to
honor if=ide.
