[libvirt] [PATCH v2] esx: Explicitly disable unused floppy devices

floppy0.present defaults to true. Therefore, it needs to be
explicitly set to false when the XML config doesn't specify the
corresponding floppy device.

v2:
- This issue affects ESX too, the assumed default was wrong in
  general
- Explicitly disable unused floppy devices independent of the
  product version
