[libvirt] [PATCH] qemu: Don't build cache= cmd line for scsi-block

Trying to set any cache for <disk device='lun'/> makes no sense.
Such disk translates into -device scsi-block on the command line
and the device lacks any cache setting because it's merely a
middle man between qemu and real SCSI device.
