[PATCH v2 2/2] qemu: report an error if memballoon has wrong address type

[Ján Tomko <jtomko@xxxxxxxxxx>]

qemuBuildMemballoonDevStr returns NULL if memballoon doesn't have
the right address type, but it doesn't report an error, leading to:
error: An error occurred, but the cause is unknown

Report a helpful error message instead, e.g.:
error: XML error: memballoon unsupported with address type 'usb'
