Introduce public API for domain async job handling
Introduce a new public API that provides a way to get progress info on currently running jobs on a virDomainpPtr. APIs that are initially within scope of this idea are virDomainMigrate virDomainMigrateToURI virDomainSave virDomainRestore virDomainCoreDump These all take a potentially long time and benefit from monitoring. The virDomainJobInfo struct allows for various pieces of information to be reported - Percentage completion - Time - Overall data - Guest memory data - Guest disk/file data * include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in: Add virDomainGetJobInfo * python/generator.py, python/libvirt-override-api.xml, python/libvirt-override.c: Override for virDomainGetJobInfo API * python/typewrappers.c, python/typewrappers.h: Introduce wrapper for unsigned long long type
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.

Description
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.
