virtme: always add modules required by microvm to the initramfs

Some pre-compiled kernels may not have all the modules required by microvm (virtio_mmio / virtio_pci) statically built inside the kernel, causing a boot failure. This can happen for example with the stock kernel in openSUSE Tumbleweed. To prevent this from happening always include the modules required by microvm, so that we can boot also these kernels without having to disable microvm. With this change applied we can run the stock openSUSE Tumbleweed kernel via `vng -vr`. Signed-off-by: Andrea Righi <[email protected]>
