migration: Don't activate block devices if using -S

Activating the block devices causes the locks to be taken on
the backing file.  If we're running with -S and the destination libvirt
hasn't started the destination with 'cont', it's expecting the locks are
still untaken.

Don't activate the block devices if we're not going to autostart the VM;
'cont' already will do that anyway.   This change is tied to the new
migration capability 'late-block-activate' that defaults to off, keeping
the old behaviour by default.
