The builtin path id for virtio block devices has been changed
to use the bus id without a prefix "virtio-pci" to be
compatible with all virtio transport types.
In order to not break existing setups, the by-path symlinks for
virtio block devices on the PCI bus are reintroduced by udev rules.
The virtio-pci symlinks are considered to be deprecated and
should be replaced by the native PCI symlinks.
Example output for a virtio disk in PCI slot 7:
$ ls /dev/disk/by-path
pci-0000:00:07.0
pci-0000:00:07.0-part1
virtio-pci-0000:00:07.0
virtio-pci-0000:00:07.0-part1

This reverts
f073b1b but keeps the same symlinks for compatibility.
