hw/block/fdc: Kludge missing floppy drive to fix CVE-2021-20196
Guest might select another drive on the bus by setting the
DRIVE_SEL bit of the DIGITAL OUTPUT REGISTER (DOR).
The current controller model doesn't expect a BlockBackend
to be NULL. A simple way to fix CVE-2021-20196 is to create
an empty BlockBackend when it is missing. All further
accesses will be safely handled, and the controller state
machines keep behaving correctly.
