[PATCH]add option to disable key repeat in device model for vmx guest

[Ling, Xiaofeng]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 320 bytes --]

Add an option for device model to disable key repeat.
On slow network, when creating a vmx guest remotely,
the key repeat feature may make it hard to even type
the user name and password to login in to guest OS.
