Use QEMU's standard VGA instead of virtio-vga

On Arch, -vga virtio needs qemu-hw-display-virtio-vga and also
qemu-hw-display-virtio-gpu, which that package doesn't depend on; with only
the first, QEMU segfaults at start without a message. The smoketest's VMs
are headless (or VNC), so -vga std, which qemu-base has, is enough. This
reverts 2207208's extra package and checks.
