One of the annoyances of the current migration format is the fact that
it's not self-describing. In fact, it's not properly describing at all.
Some code randomly scattered throughout QEMU elaborates roughly how to
read and write a stream of bytes.
We discussed an idea during KVM Forum 2013 to add a JSON description of
the migration protocol itself to the migration stream. This patch
adds a section after the VM_END migration end marker that contains
description data on what the device sections of the stream are composed of.
This approach is backwards compatible with any QEMU version reading the
stream, because QEMU just stops reading after the VM_END marker and ignores
any data following it.
With an additional external program this allows us to decipher the
contents of any migration stream and hopefully make migration bugs easier
to track down.

For ftell we flush the output buffer to ensure that we don't have anything
lingering in our internal buffers. This is a very safe thing to do.
However, with the dynamic size measurement that the dynamic vmstate
description will bring this would turn out quite slow.
Instead, we can fast path this specific measurement and just take the
internal buffers into account when telling the kernel our position.
I'm sure I overlooked some corner cases where this doesn't work, so
instead of tuning the safe, existing version, this patch adds a fast
variant of ftell that gets used by the dynamic vmstate description code
which isn't critical when it fails.

libvirt prefers opening the TCP connection itself, for two reasons.
First, connection failed errors can be detected easier, without having
to parse qemu's error output.
Second, libvirt might be asked to secure the transfer by tunnelling the
communication through an TLS layer.
Therefore, libvirt opens the TCP connection itself and passes an FD to qemu
using QMP and a POSIX-specific mechanism.
Hence, in order to make the reverse-path work in such cases, qemu needs to
distinguish if the transmitted FD is a socket (reverse-path available)
or not (reverse-path might not be available) and use the corresponding
abstraction.

Only free qsb that qemu_bufopen allocated, and also allow
qemu_bufopen accept qsb as input for write operation. It
will make the API more logical:
1.If you create the QEMUSizedBuffer yourself, you need to
free it by using qsb_free() but not depends on other API
like qemu_fclose.
2.allow qemu_bufopen() accept QEMUSizedBuffer as input for
write operation, otherwise, it will be a little strange
for this API won't accept the second parameter.
This brings API change, since there are only 3
users of this API currently, this change only impact the
first one which will be fixed in patch 2 of this patchset,
so I think it is safe to do this change.

Because of wrong return value of .save_live_pending() in
migration/block.c, migration finishes before the whole disk is
transferred. Such situation occurs when the migration process is fast
enough, for example when source and dest are on the same host.
If in the bulk phase we return something < max_size, we will skip
transferring the tail of the device. Currently we have "set pending to
BLOCK_SIZE if it is zero" for bulk phase, but there no guarantee, that
it will be < max_size.
True approach is to return, for example, max_size+1 when we are in the
bulk phase.

Mirror and migration use dirty bitmaps for their purposes, and since
commit [block: per caller dirty bitmap] they use their own bitmaps, not
the global one. But they use old functions bdrv_set_dirty and
bdrv_reset_dirty, which change all dirty bitmaps.
Named dirty bitmaps series by Fam and Snow are affected: mirroring and
migration will spoil all (not related to this mirroring or migration)
named dirty bitmaps.
This patch fixes this by adding bdrv_set_dirty_bitmap and
bdrv_reset_dirty_bitmap, which change concrete bitmap. Also, to prevent
such mistakes in future, old functions bdrv_(set,reset)_dirty are made
static, for internal block usage.

The migration code now occupies a fair chunk of the top level .c
files, it seems time to give it it's own directory.
I've not touched:
arch_init.c - that's mostly RAM migration but has a few random other
bits
savevm.c - because it's built target specific
This is purely a code move; no code has changed.
- it fails checkpatch because of old violations, it feels safer
to keep this as purely a move and fix those at some mythical future
date.
The xbzrle and vmstate tests are now only run for softmmu builds
since they require files in the migrate/ directory which is only built
for softmmu.
