It seems appropriate for paravirtual hardware to reset cursor when the resolution changes, that way the cursor is removed if the machine is forcefully rebooted for ex. That's what the QXL/Spice server does. In order for virtio-gpu to work will with the Spice server, set the cursor again after changing the scanout.

I'm really not sure about this, I think we should probably have qemu do this if necessary.

Normal GPU hw the cursor is independant from the modesetting, and we turn it on/off.

I don't think the virt GPU should operate differently here.
