[libvirt] [PATCH] Don't autogenerate seclabels of type 'none'

When security drivers are active and domain def contains
no <seclabel> elements, there is no need to autogenerate
seclabels when starting the domain, e.g.

  <seclabel type='none' model='apparmor'/>

In fact, autogenerating the label can result in needless
save/restore and migration failures when the security driver
is not active on the restore/migration target.

The virSecurityManagerGenLabel function in src/security_manager.c
even has logic to skip autogenerated labels, but the logic
is a bit flawed. Autogeneration should be skipped when the
domain has not seclabels, i.e. vm->nseclabels == 0.
