s/only supported/not supported/

I also wonder if more thorough validation would be a good idea: this
only ensures that VIR_DOMAIN_DISK_MODEL_VIRTIO_* can't be used with
other bus types, but if later on we add more VIR_DOMAIN_DISK_MODEL_*
we won't be protected against those being use with
VIR_DOMAIN_DISK_BUS_VIRTIO...

I think we want to have VIR_DOMAIN_DISK_MODEL_VIRTIO as well, for
consistency's sake if nothing else.

For all other devices, model='virtio' will be (or already is) a
perfectly valid configuration, so not accepting it for disks would
violate the principle of least surprise.

You can strip this file further by removing the <currentMemory>,
<os><boot>, <clock>, <on_*> and <input> elements at least.
