qdev: Check for the availability of a hotplug controller before adding a device

The qdev_unplug() function contains a g_assert(hotplug_ctrl) statement,
so QEMU crashes when the user tries to device_add + device_del a device
that does not have a corresponding hotplug controller. This could be
provoked for a couple of devices in the past (see commit 4c93950659487c7ad
or 84ebd3e8c7d4fe955 for example), and can currently for example also be
triggered like this:

$ s390x-softmmu/qemu-system-s390x -M none -nographic
QEMU 2.10.50 monitor - type 'help' for more information
(qemu) device_add qemu-s390x-cpu,id=x
(qemu) device_del x
**
ERROR:qemu/qdev-monitor.c:872:qdev_unplug: assertion failed: (hotplug_ctrl)
Aborted (core dumped)

So devices clearly need a hotplug controller when they should be usable
with device_add.
The code in qdev_device_add() already checks whether the bus has a proper
hotplug controller, but for devices that do not have a corresponding bus,
there is no appropriate check available yet. In that case we should check
whether the machine itself provides a suitable hotplug controller and
refuse to plug the device if none is available.
