Since threadpool increments the current number of threads according to current
load, i.e. how many jobs are waiting in the queue. The count however, is
constrained by max and min limits of workers. The logic of this new API works
like this:
1) setting the minimum
a) When the limit is increased, depending on the current number of
threads, new threads are possibly spawned if the current number of
threads is less than the new minimum limit
b) Decreasing the minimum limit has no possible effect on the current
number of threads
2) setting the maximum
a) Icreasing the maximum limit has no immediate effect on the current
number of threads, it only allows the threadpool to spawn more
threads when new jobs, that would otherwise end up queued, arrive.
b) Decreasing the maximum limit may affect the current number of
threads, if the current number of threads is less than the new
maximum limit. Since there may be some ongoing time-consuming jobs
that would effectively block this API from killing any threads.
Therefore, this API is asynchronous with best-effort execution,
i.e. the necessary number of workers will be terminated once they
finish their previous job, unless other workers had already
terminated, decreasing the limit to the requested value.
3) setting priority workers
- both increase and decrease in count of these workers have an
immediate impact on the current number of workers, new ones will be
spawned or some of them get terminated respectively.

New API to retrieve current server workerpool specs. Since it uses typed
parameters, more specs to retrieve can be further included in the pool of
supported ones.

virAdm is prefix only used on the client side. Or at least for now. On
server, though, this corresponds to virNet structures (virAdmConnect is
virNetDaemon, virAdmServer should be virNetServer, in the future
virAdmClient will be resolved to virNetServerClient, and so on).
This will also make future work clearer and easier.

This API is merely a convenience API, i.e. when managing clients connected to
daemon's servers, we should know (convenience) which server the specific client
is connected to. This implies a client-side representation of a server along
with a basic API to let the administrating client know what servers are actually
available on the daemon.

This change is merely because admin_server would contain all the code
from dispatchers and helpers to the actual APIs. Admin should have
similar structure to the daemon-side remote driver - dispatchers and
helpers in a separate module, APIs in a separate module.
Best viewed with -M.
