NEWS: note new passt feature & bugfix for 9.1.0 release

This also adds a sentence pointing out that SELinux must be disabled
in order for passt support to work. I didn't think to put that info in
the NEWS file last month when reporting the addition of passt support.

* qemu: support automatic restart of inadvertently terminated passt process
If the passt process that is serving as the backend of a -netdev
stream is terminated unexpectedly, libvirt now listens to QEMU's
notification of this, and starts up a new passt instance, thus
preserving network connectivity.

* QEMU: properly report passt startup errors
Due to how the child passt process was started, the initial
support for passt (added in 9.0.0) would not see errors
encountered during startup, so libvirt would continue to setup and
start the guest; this led to a running guest with no network
connectivity.
(NB: On systems that use them, it is still necessary to disable
SELinux/AppArmor to start passt.)
