Presence of the virtio-net-pci option called "failover" indicates
support in a qemu binary of a simplistic bonding of a virtio-net
device with another PCI device. This feature allows migration of
guests that have a network device assigned to a guest with VFIO, by
creating a network bond device in the guest consisting of the
VFIO-assigned device and a virtio-net-pci device, then temporarily
(and automatically) unplugging the VFIO net device prior to migration
(and hotplugging an equivalent device on the migration
destination). (The feature is called "failover" because the bond
device uses the vfio-pci netdev for normal guest networking, but
"fails over" to the virtio-net-pci netdev once the vfio-pci device is
unplugged for migration.)
Full functioning of the feature also requires support in the
virtio-net driver in the guest OS (since that is where the bond device
resides), but if the "failover" commandline option is present for the
virtio-net-pci device in qemu, at least the qemu part of the feature
is available, and libvirt can add the proper options to both the
virtio-net-pci and vfio-pci device commandlines to indicate qemu
should attempt doing the failover during migration.
This patch just adds the qemu capabilities flag "virtio-net.failover".

The "ps2" bus is only available on certain machines like x86. On
machines like s390x, we should refuse to add a device to this bus
instead of silently ignoring it.
Looking at the QEMU sources, PS/2 is only available if the QEMU binary
has the "i8042" device, so let's check for that and only allow "ps2"
devices if this QEMU device is available, or if we're on x86 anyway
(so we don't have to fake the QEMU_CAPS_DEVICE_I8042 capability in
all the tests that use <input ... bus='ps2'/> in their xml data).

Initial implementation of 'auto-read-only' didn't reopen the backing
files when needed. For '-blockdev' to work we need to be able to tel
qemu to open a file read-only and change it during blockjobs as we label
backing chains with a sVirt label which does not allow writing. The
dynamic auto-read-only supports this as it reopens files when writing
is demanded.

the dynamic part.

Linux kernel 5.1 added a new PPC KVM capability named
KVM_PPC_CPU_CHAR_BCCTR_FLUSH_ASSIST, which is exposed to the QEMU guest
since QEMU commit 8ff43ee404d under a new sPAPR capability called
SPAPR_CAP_CCF_ASSIST. This cap indicates whether the processor supports
hardware acceleration for the count cache flush workaround, which
is a software workaround that flushes the count cache on context
switch. If the processor has this hardware acceleration, the software
flush can be shortened, resulting in performance gain.
This hardware acceleration is defaulted to 'off' in QEMU. The reason
is that earlier versions of the Power 9 processor didn't support
it (it is available on Power 9 DD2.3 and newer), and defaulting this
option to 'on' would break migration compatibility between the Power 9
processor class.
However, the user running a P9 DD2.3+ hypervisor might want to create
guests with ccf-assist=on, accepting the downside of only being able
to migrate them only between other P9 DD2.3+ hosts running upstream
kernel 5.1+, to get a performance boost.
This patch adds this new capability to Libvirt, with the name of
QEMU_CAPS_MACHINE_PSERIES_CAP_CCF_ASSIST.

Add two capabilities for testing features required for the upcoming
virDomainBackupBegin: use block-dirty-bitmap-merge as the generic
witness of bitmap support needed for checkpoints (since all of the
bitmap management functionalities were finalized in the same qemu 4.0
release), and the bitmap parameter to nbd-server-add for pull-mode
backup support. Even though both capabilities are likely to be
present or absent together (that is, it is unlikely to encounter a
qemu that backports only one of the two), it still makes sense to keep
two capabilities as the two uses are orthogonal (full backups don't
require checkpoints, push mode backups don't require NBD bitmap
support, and checkpoints can be used for more than just incremental
backups).
Existing code is not affected by the new capabilities.
