Subject: [PATCH] conf: don't allow connecting upstream-port directly to
 pce-expander-bus

I apparently misunderstood Marcel's description of what could and
couldn't be plugged into qemu's pxb-pcie controller (known as
pcie-expander-bus in libvirt) - I specifically allowed directly
connecting a pcie-switch-upstream-port, and it turns out that causes
the guest kernel to crash.

This patch forbids such a connection, and updates the xml docs
appropriately.

Resolves: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1361172
(cherry picked from commit b70e54342bbd1756234e07ed6b22bdd3cd12b689)
