[libvirt] [PATCH v2 06/15] vbox: Errors in vboxAttachDrives are now critical

Previously, if one tried to define a VBOX VM and the API failed to
perform the requested actions for some reason, it would just log the
error and move on to process remaining disk definitions. This is not
desired as it could result in incorrectly defined VM without the caller
even knowing about it. So now all the code paths that call
virReportError are now treated as hard failures as they should have
been.
