#12848: VirtualMemory crashes on exit if volume is read-only

Test:
- Boot Haiku from CD or other read-only media.
- Open VirtualMemory preflet; it is not necessary to change any setting.
- Close VirtualMemory.
Result:
VirtualMemory crashes with segment violation in
SettingsWindow::_RecordChoices()
Resolution:
VirtualMemory should not attempt to save settings to read-only media.
Probably, it should inform the user that virtual memory cannot be used
because the boot volume is read-only.
