 ...
    <initiator>
      <iqn name="iqn.2013-06.com.example:iscsi-initiator"/>
    </initiator>

Add --source-initiator to fill the initiator iqn for
pool-create-as/pool-define-as subcommands.

7a706b02ed manpages/virsh: A couple of small clarifications
Changes:

  - Update the descriptions of --current & --config flags.

    For --config, the reason to rephrase "next boot" to "next start"
    is: "Next boot may still imply somebody selecting "reboot" in the
    guest OS and fully expecting the changes to be applied."  (per Peter
    Krempa)

    For --current, existing documentation says:

      "If *--current* is specified, affect the current guest state."

    It's not entirely clear what states can "current" mean or imply.  So
    rephrase it in context of the other two related flags --live and
    --config.

  - While at it, I also took the liberty to replace the few occurrences
    of "peristent domain[s]" with "persistent guest[s]"

Fix all occurrences (i.e. as many as I could spot) of this.

(Thanks: Dan Berrangé on IRC.)

3a58613b0c manpages/virsh.rst: clarify numatune memory migration on Linux
On Linux, changing the nodeset on 'numatune' does not imply that
the guest memory will be migrated on the spot to the new nodeset.
The memory migration is tied on guest usage of the memory pages,
and an idle guest will take longer to have its memory migrated
to the new nodeset.

This is a behavior explained in detail in the Linux kernel
documentation in Documentation/admin-guide/cgroup-v1/cpusets.rst.
The user doesn't need this level of detail though - just needs
his/her expectations under check. Running 'numastat' and hoping
for instant memory migration from the previous nodeset to the new
one is not viable.

There's also parts of the memory that are locked by QEMU in the
same place, e.g. when VFIO devices are present. Let's also
mention it as another factor that impacts the results the
user might expect from NUMA memory migration with numatune.

41345f6201 virsh: Allow extracting 'return' section of QMP command in 'qemu-monitor-command'
Simplify gathering the actual return value from a passed-through QMP
command when using 'qemu-monitor-command' by adding '--return-value'
switch which just extracts the 'return' section and alternatively
reports an error if the section is not present.

This simplifies gathering of some test data where the full reply would
need to be trimmed just for the actual return value.
