OvmfPkg/Virtio10Dxe: don't bind virtio-vga

Commit 9399f68ae3 ("OvmfPkg: Virtio10Dxe: non-transitional driver for
virtio-1.0 PCI devices") created a "competition" between Virtio10Dxe and
QemuVideoDxe for virtio-vga devices. The binding order between these
drivers is unspecified, and the wrong order effectively breaks commit
94210dc95e ("OvmfPkg: QemuVideoDxe: add virtio-vga support").

Thus, never bind virtio-vga in Virtio10Dxe; QemuVideoDxe provides better
compatibility for guest OSes that insist on inheriting a linear
framebuffer. Users who prefer the VirtIo GPU interface at boot time should
specify virtio-gpu-pci, which is exactly virtio-vga, minus the VGA
compatibility (such as the framebuffer).
