docs: document how to disable memballoon

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=623903 documents a qemu
bug that causes libvirt to hang if virt-manager happens to be
querying balloon info when a guest is paused.  Until the qemu bug
is fixed, people need to know how to avoid the issue.

* docs/formatdomain.html.in (Memory balloon device): Mention
model='none'.
