The vram attribute is never used for VGA, CIRRUS and VMVGA as
QEMU has no vram attribute for these models. Hide it for qemu
in qemuDomainDevicePostParse function. And update the
corresponding test cases and descriptions.

NACK to these two chunks! The fact that qemu doesn't support setting vram (or maybe it does meanwhile, but we're missing implementation) doesn't mean it should be removed from the XML - moreover, some other drivers support this setting (e.g. vmx and virtualbox). We must keep it there otherwise vmx users won't like us anymore.

True. This is a good note to have in docs. Okay.

Well, the field can be looked as reporting field back to user. But I can live with this too.
