Never mind. SPICE_DISPLAY_CAP_CODEC_{MJPEG VP8 VP9 H264} is for
client side only. That's a little confusing, server could be unable to
do SPICE_DISPLAY_CAP_MULTI_CODEC or encode in VP8/VP9/H264 but it does
not need to explicit say it.

So, it doesn't really need to check it til it tries to create the
pipeline. If it can't create a stream in VP9 it will simply try the next
one in the list.

I'll fix spicy check and do some more testing before sending it again.
