Up until now we have only formatted non-default GIC versions on the command line, in order to maintain compatibility with older QEMU versions that didn't implement the gic-version option to begin with; however, doing so is entirely unnecessary for newer QEMU versions, where the option is available. Moreover, having the GIC version formatted on the command line at all times ensures that QEMU changing its own defaults doesn't affect the ABI of libvirt guests. A few test cases are removed to avoid extra churn. It doesn't matter for coverage, as those scenarios are already covered by other parts of the test suite. This patch is better viewed with 'git show -w'.
