Create a new API that will allow an adjustment of IOThread
polling parameters for the specified IOThread. These parameters
will not be saved in the guest XML. Currently the only parameters
supported will allow the hypervisor to adjust the parameters used
to limit and alter the scope of the polling interval. The polling
interval allows the IOThread to spend more or less time processing
in the guest.
Based on code originally posted by Pavel Hrdina <phrdina@redhat.com>
to add virDomainAddIOThreadParams and virDomainModIOThreadParams.
Modification of those changes to use virDomainSetIOThreadParams
instead and remove concepts related to saving the data in guest
XML as well as the way to specifically enable the polling parameters.

When users want to update a path to a CDROM they tend to
construct a very minimal XML and feed the API with it. This is
not a good practice as it breaks the assumptions the API is built
on. Most notably, leaving an element out should be treated as a
request for removal of the corresponding setting. Just like
leaving out <bandwidth/> clears out any QoS previously set.

If there's a long running job it might cause us to wait 30
seconds before we give up acquiring the job. This is problematic
to interactive applications that fetch stats repeatedly every few
seconds.
The solution is to introduce
VIR_CONNECT_GET_ALL_DOMAINS_STATS_NOWAIT flag which tries to
acquire job but does not wait if acquiring failed.

Whenever we declare a new object the first member of the struct
has to be virObject (or any other member of that family). Now, up
until now we did not care about the name of the struct member.
But lets unify it so that we can do some checks at compile time
later.
The unified name is 'parent'.

Seeing a log message saying 'flags=93' is ambiguous & confusing unless
you happen to know that libvirt always prints flags as hex. Change our
debug messages so that they always add a '0x' prefix when printing flags,
and '0' prefix when printing mode. A few other misc places gain a '0x'
prefix in error messages too.

The API docs for the various vir$OBJECTGetConnect functions
contain a warning
WARNING: When writing libvirt bindings in other languages, do
not use this function. Instead, store the connection and
the domain object together.
There is no reason why language bindings should not use this
method, and indeed the Perl, Python, and Go bindings all use
these methods.
This warning was originally added back in
commit 3edb4bc9fb

IIUC, the rational was that these APIs do not need to be
directly exposed to the non-C language, as the language
can expose the same concept itself by storing the original
virConnectPtr object alongside the virDomainPtr. There's
no reason to mandate such an approach though - it is valid
for languages to expose this directly if that suits their
needs better.

This allows to use the block-copy job with persistent VMs under the same

Management tools may want to check whether the threshold is still set if
they missed an event. Add the data to the bulk stats API where they can
also query the current backing size at the same time.
Similarly to domainSetGuestVcpus this commit adds API which allows to
modify state of individual vcpus rather than just setting the count.
This allows to enable CPUs in specific guest NUMA nodes to achieve any
necessary configuration.
