qemu: caps: Tweak arm conditional in SupportsChardev
Rather than try to whitelist all device configs that can't use
-chardev, blacklist the only one that really can't, which is the
default serial/console target type=isa case.
ISA specifically isn't a valid config for arm/aarch64, but we've
always implicitly treated it to mean 'default platform device'.
