[PATCH 4/8] qemuDomainCreateDeviceRecursive: Fail on unsupported file type

[Michal Privoznik <mprivozn@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Currently, we silently assume that file we are creating in the
namespace is either a link or a device (character or block one).
This is not always the case. Therefore instead of doing something
wrong, claim about unsupported file type.
