There is an oversight in the code for removable drives where the media type of the drive is always generated as cdrom for removable drives, without checking if the drive is a floppy. This leads to read-only access in the guest.

Fixed by checking if the drive interface is "floppy"; if so the media type is set correctly to "disk" instead of "cdrom".

This will be fixed by #3334; I have tested this successfully by inserting a floppy image into a DOS VM and formatting and writing to the virtual floppy disk from the guest.
