Eric Blake 28d182506a save: support bypass-cache flag in libvirt-guests init script
libvirt-guests is a perfect use case for bypassing the file system
cache - lots of filesystem traffic done at system shutdown, where
caching is pointless, and startup, where reading large files only
once just gets in the way.  Make this a configurable option in the
init script, but defaulting to existing behavior.

* tools/libvirt-guests.sysconf (BYPASS_CACHE): New variable.
* tools/libvirt-guests.init.sh (start, suspend_guest): Use it.

# - suspend all running guests are suspended using virsh managedsave
# - shutdown all running guests are asked to shutdown. Please be careful with
# this settings since there is no way to distinguish between a
# guest which is stuck or ignores shutdown requests and a guest
# which just needs a long time to shutdown. When setting
# ON_SHUTDOWN=shutdown, you must also set SHUTDOWN_TIMEOUT to a
# value suitable for your guests.

# restoring guests, even though this may give slower operation for
# some file systems.
