hw: Drop superfluous special checks for orphaned -drive
We've traditionally rejected orphans here and there, but not
systematically.  For instance, the sun4m machines have an onboard SCSI
HBA (bus=0), and have always rejected bus>0.  Other machines with an
onboard SCSI HBA don't.

Commit a66c9dc made all orphans trigger a warning, and the previous
commit turned this into an error.  The checks "here and there" are now
redundant.  Drop them.

Note that the one in mips_jazz.c was wrong: it rejected bus > MAX_FD,
but MAX_FD is the number of floppy drives per bus.

Error messages change from

    $ qemu-system-x86_64 -drive if=ide,bus=2
    qemu-system-x86_64: Too many IDE buses defined (3 > 2)
    $ qemu-system-mips64 -M magnum,accel=qtest -drive if=floppy,bus=2,id=fd1
    qemu: too many floppy drives
    $ qemu-system-sparc -M LX -drive if=scsi,bus=1
    qemu: too many SCSI bus

to

    $ qemu-system-x86_64 -drive if=ide,bus=2
    qemu-system-x86_64: -drive if=ide,bus=2: machine type does not support if=ide,bus=2,unit=0
    $ qemu-system-mips64 -M magnum,accel=qtest -drive if=floppy,bus=2,id=fd1
    qemu-system-mips64: -drive if=floppy,bus=2,id=fd1: machine type does not support if=floppy,bus=2,unit=0
    $ qemu-system-sparc -M LX -drive if=scsi,bus=1
    qemu-system-sparc: -drive if=scsi,bus=1: machine type does not support if=scsi,bus=1,unit=0
