video: cleanup usage of vram attribute and update documentation

The vram attribute was introduced to set the video memory but it is
usable only for few hypervisors excluding QEMU/KVM and the old XEN
driver. Only in case of QEMU the vram was used for QXL.

This patch updates the documentation to reflect current code in libvirt
and also changes the cases when we will set the default vram attribute.
It also fixes existing strange default value for VGA devices 9MB to 16MB
because the video ram should be rounded to power of two.

The change of default value could affect migrations but I found out that
QEMU always round the video ram to power of two internally so it's safe
to change the default value to the next closest power of two and also
silently correct every domain XML definition. And it's also safe because
we don't pass the value to QEMU.

Resolves: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1076098

The <code>video</code> element is the container for describing
video devices. For backwards compatibility, if no <code>video</code>
is set but there is a <code>graphics</code> in domain xml, then libvirt
will add a default <code>video</code> according to the guest type.
For a guest of type "kvm", the default <code>video</code> for it is:
<code>type</code> with value "cirrus", <code>vram</code> with value
"9216", and <code>heads</code> with value "1". By default, the first
video device in domain xml is the primary one, but the optional
attribute <code>primary</code> (<span class="since">since 1.0.2</span>)
with value 'yes' can be used to mark the primary in cases of multiple
video device. The non-primary must be type of "qxl". The optional
attribute <code>ram</code> (<span class="since">since
1.0.2</span>) is allowed for "qxl" type only and specifies
the size of the primary bar, while <code>vram</code> specifies the
secondary bar size. If "ram" or "vram" are not supplied a default
value is used.
