As of v7.0.0-877-g70ac26b9e5 QEMU exposes its default event loop
for devices with no IOThread assigned as an QMP object. In the
very next commit (v7.0.0-878-g71ad4713cc) it was extended for
thread-pool-min and thread-pool-max attributes. Expose them under
new <defaultiothread/> element.

At least in case of QEMU an IOThread is actually a pool of
threads (see iothread_set_aio_context_params() in QEMU's code
base). As such, it can have minimal and maximal number of worker
threads. Allow setting them in domain XML.

In many cases we move around or rename internal anchors which may break
links leading to the content.
docutils handle the case of links inside a document, but we are lacking
the same form of checking between documents.
Introduce a script which cross-checks all the anchors and links in HTML
output files and prints problems and use it as a test case for the
'docs' directory.

Add the ability to configure a qemu-vdagent in guest domains. This
device is similar to the spice vdagent channel except that qemu handles
the spice-vdagent protocol messages itself rather than routing them over
a spice protocol channel.
The qemu-vdagent device has two notable configuration options which
determine whether qemu will handle particular vdagent features:
'clipboard' and 'mouse'.
The 'clipboard' option allows qemu to synchronize its internal clipboard
manager with the guest clipboard, which enables client<->guest clipboard
synchronization for non-spice guests such as vnc.
The 'mouse' option allows absolute mouse positioning to be sent over the
vdagent channel rather than using a usb or virtio tablet device.
Sample configuration:
<channel type='qemu-vdagent'>
<target type='virtio' name='com.redhat.spice.0'/>
<source>
<clipboard copypaste='yes'/>
<mouse mode='client'/>
</source>
</channel>
