Andrea Bolognani 763381df53 qemu: Make monitor aware of CPU clusters
This makes it so libvirt can obtain accurate information about
guest CPUs from QEMU, and should make it possible to correctly
perform operations such as CPU hotplug.

Of course this is mostly moot at the moment: only aarch64 can use
CPU clusters, and CPU hotplug is not yet implemented on that
architecture.

Libvirt API for virtualization

Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER Hypervisor.

For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.

Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.
