Yes, the whole card will get dedicated to the VM, so it can't be used
by the host at the same time. Graphics cards are not supported at all
by KVM and PCI passthrough requires IOMMU support in the chipset,
which is still only available (and/or enabled) on very few
motherboards.
KVM do support dev assignment of nic/hba )few) but not yet for graphics.

Correct, this is not Fedora (or KVM) specific, this is pure upstream QEMU.
Even Cirrus supply more than 1024*768, this might be a guest X issue.
Besides Cirrus you can start with -vga std to get more resolutions.
