qemu: avoid double reservation of PCI address for interface type='hostdev'

Commit 01ca4010d86 (libvirt v5.1.0) moved address reservation for
hotplugged interface devices up to an earlier point in
qemuDomainAttachNetDevice(), because that function calls
qemuDomainSupportsNicdev() (in the case of
VIR_DOMAIN_NET_TYPE_VHOSTUSER), and qemuDomainSupportsNicdev() needs
to know the address type (for ARM machinetypes) and returns incorrect
results when the address type is "none".

This bugfix unfortunately caused a regression, because it also made PCI
address reservation happen before we noticed that the device was a
*hostdev* interface. Those interfaces are hotplugged by just calling
out to qemuDomainAttachHostdevDevice() - that function would then also
attempt to reserve the *same PCI address* that had just been reserved
in qemuDomainAttachNetDevice().

The solution is to move the bit of code that short-circuits out to
virDomainHostdevAttach() up *even earlier* so that no PCI address has
been allocated by the time it's called.
