Currently we have three QemuOptsList (qemu_common_drive_opts,
qemu_legacy_drive_opts, and qemu_drive_opts)
only qemu_drive_opts is added to vm_config_groups[]

| Revert "block: Disable driver-specific options for 1.5"
This patch removed the items in qemu_drive_opts .desc
We query commandline options by checking information in vm_config_groups[],
so we can only get a NULL parameter list now.
Another issue is we also can't query legacy options of -drive.

Can we fix this problem by copy desc items of qemu_legacy_drive_opts and
qemu_common_drive_opts to qemu_drive_opts?
