vl: Improve error message for conflicting -incoming and -loadvm

Currently, the conflict between -incoming and -loadvm is only detected
when loading the snapshot fails because the image is still inactive for
the incoming migration. This results in a suboptimal error message:

$ ./qemu-system-x86_64 -hda /tmp/test.qcow2 -loadvm foo -incoming defer
qemu-system-x86_64: Device 'ide0-hd0' is writable but does not support snapshots

Catch the situation already in qemu_validate_options() to improve the
message:

$ ./qemu-system-x86_64 -hda /tmp/test.qcow2 -loadvm foo -incoming defer
qemu-system-x86_64: 'incoming' and 'loadvm' options are mutually exclusive
