[libvirt] [PATCH] qemu: Log error if domain uses security driver which is not loaded

When starting a domain, if we find out domain requests security drivers
we do not have loaded, we fail. However we don't check for this during
reconnect, so any operation relying on security driver functionality would fail.
If someone e.g. starts a domain with selinux driver loaded, then they turn off
the security driver in config, restart the daemon and call dump/save/..,
QEMU returns an error.
As we shouldn't kill the domain, we should at least log an error to let the
user know that domain reconnect wasn't completely clean.
