[PATCH v2 3/6] Revert "domain_conf.c: auto-align pSeries NVDIMM in virDomainMemoryDefPostParse()"

The code to align ppc64 NVDIMMs on post parse was introduced in
commit d3f3c2c97f9b. That commit failed to realize that we
can't align memory unconditionally. As of commit c7d7ba85a624
("qemu: command: Align memory sizes only on fresh starts"),
all memory alignment should be executed only when we're not
migrating or in a snapshot.

This revert does not break any guests in the wild, given that
ppc64 NVDIMMs are still being aligned in qemuDomainAlignMemorySizes().

Next patch will introduce a mechanism where we can have post
parse NVDIMM alignment for pSeries without breaking the
intended design, as defined by c7d7ba85a624.

This reverts commit d3f3c2c97f9b92c982ff809479495f44614edb88.
