[libvirt] [PATCH] vbox: remove unused code that causes build failures

[Taowei Luo]

Sorry for troubling. I'm checking the release note and just find I missed
this.
This state existed because it is in the middle of something (say I am
rewriting the whole network driver and storage driver for vbox.)
And I did forget to remove vbox[0-9][0-9]NetworkDriver since we don't need
it any more. So this patch just fixed it up.
What's more, the whole vboxGetDrivers is removed after rewriting the
storage driver.
