hw/qdev-core: Fix description of instance_init
The part of the documentation of DeviceClass that talks about instance_init is partly wrong: instance_init() functions must not abort or exit, since the function is also called during introspection of the device already. So if a device calls exit() during its instance_init() function, QEMU terminates unexpectedly if somebody tries to just have a look at the interfaces from the device with "device_add xyz,help" or with the "device-list-properties" QOM command. This should never happen.
