libxl: convert an empty tap disk into a qdisk
I'm not sure that empty disks which are is_cdrom are especially valid,
or that a cdrom can ever be handled by tapdisk anyway but try to do
something sane since it seems that xl's parse_disk_config() routine
could potentially generate such a configuration (although whether from
a valid input string or not I'm not sure).
