For compatibility reasons virDomainSetVcpus needs to add vcpus as non
hotpluggable which means that the users will not be able to unplug it
after the VM has started. Add a flag that will allow to tell the API
that the unpluggable vcpus are okay.
Commit 6c504d6a added a note to the virsh man page about the
deprecation of 'cap' and 'weight' settings for the credit
scheduler. To this day, the default scheduler in Xen is credit
and it supports setting 'cap' and 'weight'. Remove the deprecation
notice from the note on the Xen credit scheduler.

The command is deprecated due to being grammatically incorrect, but for

Add the definitions to allow for viewing/setting cgroup period and quota
limits for IOThreads.
This is similar to the work done for emulator quota and period by
commit ids 'b65dafa' and 'e051c482'.
Being able to view/set the IOThread specific values is related to more
recent changes adding global period (commmit id '4d92d58f') and global
quota (commit id '55ecdae') definitions and qemu support (commit id
'4e17ff79' and 'fbcbd1b2'). With a global setting though, if somehow
the IOThread value in the cgroup hierarchy was set "outside of libvirt"
to a value that is incompatible with the global value.
Allowing control over IOThread specific values provides the capability
to alter the IOThread values as necessary.

This new algorithm adds support for wiping volumes using TRIM.
It does not overwrite all the data in a volume, but it tells the
backing storage pool/driver that all bytes in a volume can be
discarded.
It depends on the backing storage pool how this is handled.
A SCSI backend might send UNMAP commands to remove all data present
on a LUN.
A Ceph backend might use rbd_discard() to instruct the Ceph cluster
that all data on that RBD volume can be discarded.

Commit id '3c7590e0a' added the flag to the rbd backend, but provided
no means via virsh to use the flag. This patch adds a '--delete-snapshots'
option to both the "undefine" and "vol-delete" commands.
For "undefine", the flag is combined with the "--remove-all-storage" flag
in order to add the appropriate flag for the virStorageVolDelete call;
whereas, for the "vol-delete" command, just the flag is sufficient since
it's only operating on one volume.
Currently only supported for rbd backends.

In the pre-NUMA ages pinning a vCPU to all pCPUs was eaqual to deleting
the pinning info. Now it does not entirely work that way. Pinning a vCPU
to all pCPUs might be a desired operation. Additionally removal of the
pinning will result into using the default pinning information at the
next boot which might be different from all vcpus.
This patch removes the false assumption that we should remove the
pinning after pinning to all vCPUs and tweaks the documentation for
virsh.
A later patch will implement a new flag for the virDomainPinVcpuFlags
API that will allow to remove the pinning in a sane way.
The --maximum option wasn't properly parsed and the equivalent flag
wasn't set. Fix this bug and also rewrite the way we check this option
by using new macro. The new approach is that --maximum requires
--config, no other combination is allowed, because they don't make sense.

This patch introduces access to allocation information about
a backing chain of a live domain. While querying storage
volumes for read-only disks could provide some of the details,
we do NOT want to read() a file while qemu is writing it.
Also, there is one case where we have to rely on qemu: when
doing a block commit into a backing file, where that file is
stored in qcow2 format on a host block device, we want to know
the current highest write offset into that image, in order to
know if the disk must be resized larger. qemu-img does not
(currently) show this information, and none of the earlier
block APIs were extensible enough to expose it. But
virDomainListGetStats is perfect for the job!
We don't need a new group of statistics, as the existing block
group is sufficient. On the other hand, as existing libvirt
releases already report 1:1 mapping of block.count to <disk>
devices, changing the array size could confuse older clients;
and even with newer clients, the time and memory taken to
report additional statistics is not always necessary (backing
files are generally read-only except for block-commit, so while
read statistics may change, sizing statistics will not). So
the choice here is to add a new flag that only newer callers
will pass, when they are prepared for the additional information.
This patch introduces the new API, but it will take more
patches to get it implemented for qemu.
