Recently changes in QEMU 5.1 requires to set 'disable-legacy=on'
on vhost-vsock-pci and vhost-user-vsock-pci devices:

    $ ./qemu-system-x86_64 ... -device vhost-vsock-pci,guest-cid=5
        qemu-system-x86_64: -device vhost-vsock-pci,guest-cid=5:
        device is modern-only, use disable-legacy=on

As discussed with Cornelia [2], this series forces virtio version 1
to vhost-vsock-pci, vhost-user-vsock-pci, and vhost-vsock-ccw devices.

virtio-vsock was introduced after the release of VIRTIO 1.0 specifications,
so it should be 'modern-only'.
In addition Cornelia verified that forcing a legacy mode on vhost-vsock-pci
device using x86-64 host and s390x guest, so with different endianness,
produces strange behaviours.

This series should be merged in stable branch since it fixes migration issues
with QEMU 5.1:
- we skip legacy support check in the old machine types (< 5.1)
- we force virtio version 1 for vhost-vsock-pci and vhost-vsock-ccw devices
  only in the new machine types (>= 5.1). vhost-user-vsock-pci was introduced
  in 5.1 and doesn't support migration, so we forced virtio version 1 in any
  case,

Thanks,
Stefano
