qemuDomainChangeNet: Forbid changing MTU

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1447618

Currently, any attempt to change MTU on an interface that is
plugged to a running domain is silently ignored. We should either
do what's asked or error out. Well, we can update the host side
of the interface, but we cannot change 'host_mtu' attribute for
the virtio-net device. Therefore we have to error out.
