net: Warn about "-net nic" options which were ignored

Diagnose the case where the user asked for a NIC via "-net nic"
but the board didn't instantiate that NIC (for example where the
user asked for two NICs but the board only supports one). Note
that this diagnostic doesn't apply to NICs created through -device,
because those are always instantiated.
