I'm not 100% sure what vectors does, however I believe this is a
resource usage tuning knob and therefore can't be inferred. max_ports we
could possibly default. However, virtio-serial also supports hot-plug,
although I haven't added libvirt support for it.

-device virtserialport,bus=channel0.0...

I've called 'channel0' the controller, and '0' the bus.

I could remove this. I was originally putting <address> elsewhere, which
screwed up the indentation.

Will do.

0 has a special meaning for vectors. From
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/VirtioSerial#How_To_Test:

If '0' is specified here, MSI will be disabled and a GSI interrupt will
be used.

I used a signed int for both values for consistency.
