[libvirt PATCH 1/3] vmx: fix logic handling mac address type

With the current formatter, the XML snippets:

    <interface type='bridge'>
      <mac address='00:0c:29:dd:ee:fe' type='static'/>
      <source bridge='br1'/>
    </interface>
    <interface type='bridge'>
      <mac address='aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:fd' type='generated'/>
      <source bridge='br2'/>
    </interface>

result in

 ethernet1.present = "true"
 ethernet1.networkName = "br1"
 ethernet1.connectionType = "bridged"
 ethernet1.addressType = "static"
 ethernet1.address = "00:0c:29:dd:ee:fe"
 ethernet1.checkMACAddress = "false"

 ethernet2.present = "true"
 ethernet2.networkName = "br2"
 ethernet2.connectionType = "bridged"
 ethernet2.addressType = "static"
 ethernet2.address = "aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:fd"
 ethernet2.checkMACAddress = "false"

which is flawed, as both type='static' and type='generated' in the XML
turn into 'static' in the VMX config.

The existence of the 'static' attribute is further overriding whether
the checkMACAddress config option is set as a side effect.

Both these pieces of flawed logic were introduced in

  commit 454e5961abf40c14f8b6d7ee216229e68fd170bf

    Add a type attribute on the mac address element

which intentionally added the 'checkMACAddress' side effect based on
the 'type' attribute.

With this change, we're reverting the handling of checkMACAddress
to match what existed historically. The 'type' attribute now directly
maps to the addressType attribute, so the above config becomes:

 ethernet1.present = "true"
 ethernet1.networkName = "br1"
 ethernet1.connectionType = "bridged"
 ethernet1.addressType = "static"
 ethernet1.address = "00:0c:29:dd:ee:fe"

 ethernet2.present = "true"
 ethernet2.networkName = "br2"
 ethernet2.connectionType = "bridged"
 ethernet2.addressType = "generated"
 ethernet2.generatedAddress = "aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:fd"
 ethernet2.generatedAddressOffset = "0"
