[OE-core] [PATCH 3/6] runqemu: only boot ramfs when specified

This can fix a problem:
IMAGE_FSTYPES += "iso"
$ bitbake core-image-minimal
$ runqemu qemux86

It may boot core-image-minimal-initramfs rather than core-image-minimal, this
is not what we want usually. This patch makes it avoid booting ramfs when there
are other choices, or when it is specified, for example, "runqemu qemux86 ramfs"
