KVM supports an alternate syntax for indicating a boot device when

Discussion with upstream indicates we're lucky it ever worked at all for
CDROM media. So this patch removes use of the boot=on flag for CDROM devices.
NB, even when we added boot=on, we always still added -boot d param too,
so merely removing the boot=on flag is sufficient to make it work again.
Oh, that's the reason of the bug :-) +1
