Historically we've marked all devices as hotpluggable by default. However,
most devices are not hotpluggable, and you also need a HotplugHandler to
support these devices. So if the user tries to "device_add" or "device_del"
such a non-hotpluggable device during runtime, either nothing really usable
happens, or QEMU even crashes/aborts unexpectedly (see for example commit
84ebd3e8c7d4fe955b - "Mark diag288 watchdog as non-hotpluggable").
So let's change this dangerous default behaviour and mark the devices as
non-hotpluggable by default. Certain parent devices classes which are known
as hotpluggable (e.g. PCI, USB, etc.) are marked with "hotpluggable = true",
so that devices that are derived from these classes continue to work as
expected.

v2: Add missing devices and dropped "RFC" status. See Eduardo's reply on
the previous version of this patch for the rationale which devices need
to be hotpluggable:
