machine: add device_type_is_dynamic_sysbus function

Right now the allowance check for adding a sysbus device using
-device cli option (or device_add qmp command) is done well after
the device has been created. It is done during the machine init done
notifier: machine_init_notify() in hw/core/machine.c

This new function will allow us to do the check at the right time and
issue an error if it fails.

Also make device_is_dynamic_sysbus() use the new function.
