We cannot disable use of vram for VGA and CIRRUS because it would be
a regression and all existing domains having this attribute in xml
would not be loaded on libvirtd start. We have to accept the fact that
the vram attribute could be defined for all current video types and
for some of them it will be just ignored.

So don't return error if the vram is set for VGA and CIRRUS.
The only possibility is to silently remove it for qemu in
qemuDomainDevicePostParse function, but that will also requires
updating all qemuxml2argv and qemuxml2xml tests.
