I know we deprecated not setting 'audiodev', but I'm not convinced
this is the right approach.

The VNC audio extension is a custom QEMU invention that few VNC
clients have implemented, and even when implemented few turn it
on as it is pretty awful stuttering.

IMHO a better approach could be to leave audiodev optional, but
stop advertizing VNC_ENCODING_AUDIO when it isn't set.

IOW, current situation

   -vnc :1       -> enables audio capture from default backend

This patch

   -vnc :1       -> error
   -vnc :1,audiodev=audio0 ->  enable audio capture from 'audio0'

Better:

   -vnc :1       -> stop advertizing VNC_ENCODING_AUDIO
   -vnc :1,audiodev=audio0 ->  enable audio capture from 'audio0'
