disable guest-provided stats on "info balloon" command

The addition of memory stats reporting to the virtio balloon causes
the 'info balloon' command to become asynchronous.  This is a regression
because in some cases it can hang the user monitor.

This is an alternative to Adam Litke's patch. Adam's patch disabled the
corresponding (guest-visible) virtio feature bit, causing issues for migration.
