When user doesn't request any explicit CPU model with libvirt or QEMU,
a machine type specific CPU model is picked. Currently there is no way
to determine what this QEMU built-in default is, so libvirt cannot
report this back to the user in the XML config.
This extends the "query-machines" QMP command so that it reports the
default CPU model typename for each machine.

When preallocating an encrypted qcow2 image, it just lets the protocol
driver write data and then does not mark the clusters as zero.
Therefore, reading this image will yield effectively random data.
As such, we have not fulfilled the promise of always writing zeroes when
preallocating an image in a while. It seems that nobody has really
cared, so change the documentation to conform to qemu's actual behavior.

Accept bitmaps and sync policies for the other backup modes.
This allows us to do things like create a bitmap synced to a full backup
without a transaction, or start a resumable backup process.
Some combinations don't make sense, though:
- NEVER policy combined with any non-BITMAP mode doesn't do anything,
because the bitmap isn't used for input or output.
It's harmless, but is almost certainly never what the user wanted.
- sync=NONE is more questionable. It can't use on-success because this
job never completes with success anyway, and the resulting artifact
of 'always' is suspect: because we start with a full bitmap and only
copy out segments that get written to, the final output bitmap will
always be ... a fully set bitmap.
Maybe there's contexts in which bitmaps make sense for sync=none,
but not without more severe changes to the current job, and omitting
it here doesn't prevent us from adding it later.

This adds an "always" policy for bitmap synchronization. Regardless of if
the job succeeds or fails, the bitmap is *always* synchronized. This means
that for backups that fail part-way through, the bitmap retains a record of
which sectors need to be copied out to accomplish a new backup using the
old, partial result.
In effect, this allows us to "resume" a failed backup; however the new backup
will be from the new point in time, so it isn't a "resume" as much as it is
an "incremental retry." This can be useful in the case of extremely large
backups that fail considerably through the operation and we'd like to not waste
the work that was already performed.

We don't need or want a new sync mode for simple differences in
semantics. Create a new mode simply named "BITMAP" that is designed to
make use of the new Bitmap Sync Mode field.
Because the only bitmap sync mode is 'on-success', this adds no new
functionality to the backup job (yet). The old incremental backup mode
is maintained as a syntactic sugar for sync=bitmap, mode=on-success.
Add all of the plumbing necessary to support this new instruction.

Depending on what a user is trying to accomplish, there might be a few
bitmap cleanup actions that occur when an operation is finished that

I am proposing three:
- NEVER: The bitmap is never synchronized against what was copied.
- ALWAYS: The bitmap is always synchronized, even on failures.
- ON-SUCCESS: The bitmap is synchronized only on success.
The existing incremental backup modes use 'on-success' semantics,
so add just that one for right now.

What's possible though is to deprecate it, keeping option working with
old machine types only.
In order to help users to find out if being deprecated CLI option
'-numa node,mem' is still supported by particular machine type, add new
"numa-mem-supported" property to output of query-machines.
"numa-mem-supported" is set to 'true' for machines that currently support
NUMA, but it will be flipped to 'false' later on, once deprecation period

This is the implementation of virtio-pmem device. Support will require
machine changes for the architectures that will support it, so it will
not yet be compiled. It can be unlocked with VIRTIO_PMEM_SUPPORTED per
machine and disabled globally via VIRTIO_PMEM.
We cannot use the "addr" property as that is already used e.g. for
virtio-pci/pci devices. And we will have e.g. virtio-pmem-pci as a proxy.
So we have to choose a different one (unfortunately). "memaddr" it is.
That name should ideally be used by all other virtio-* based memory
devices in the future.

Previously there was a single instance of the timer used by
monitor triggered announces, that's OK, but when combined with the
previous change that lets you have announces for subsets of interfaces
it's a bit restrictive if you want to do different things to different
interfaces.
Add an 'id' field to the announce, and maintain a list of the
timers based on id.
This allows you to for example:
a) Start an announce going on interface eth0 for a long time
b) Start an announce going on interface eth1 for a long time
c) Kill the announce on eth0 while leaving eth1 going.

Allow the caller to restrict the set of interfaces that announces are

e.g.
{ "execute": "announce-self", "arguments": { "initial": 50, "max": 550, "rounds": 5, "step": 50, "interfaces": ["vn2", "vn1"] } }
This doesn't affect the behaviour of migraiton announcments.
Note: There's still only one timer for the qmp command, so that
performing an 'announce-self' on one list of interfaces followed
by another 'announce-self' on another list will stop the announces
on the existing set.

This new error option allows users of blkdebug to inject errors only on
certain kinds of I/O operations. Users usually want to make a very
specific operation fail, not just any; but right now they simply hope
that the event that triggers the error injection is followed up with
that very operation. That may not be true, however, because the block
layer is changing (including blkdebug, which may increase the number of
types of I/O operations on which to inject errors).
The new option's default has been chosen to keep backwards
compatibility.
Note that similar to the internal representation, we could choose to
expose this option as a list of I/O types. But there is no practical
use for this, because as described above, users usually know exactly
which kind of operation they want to make fail, so there is no need to
specify multiple I/O types at once. In addition, exposing this option
as a list would require non-trivial changes to qemu_opts_absorb_qdict().

they can rely on the changed behavior.
Let's add feature flags to the QAPI schema language, so that we can make
such changes visible with schema introspection.
An example for a schema definition using feature flags looks like this:
{ 'struct': 'TestType',
'data': { 'number': 'int' },
'features': [ 'allow-negative-numbers' ] }
Introspection information then looks like this:
{ "name": "TestType", "meta-type": "object",
"members": [
{ "name": "number", "type": "int" } ],
"features": [ "allow-negative-numbers" ] }
This patch implements feature flags only for struct types. We'll
implement them more widely as needed.

If COW areas of the newly allocated clusters are zeroes on the backing
image, efficient bdrv_write_zeroes(flags=BDRV_REQ_NO_FALLBACK) can be
used on the whole cluster instead of writing explicit zero buffers later
in perform_cow().
iotest 060:
write to the discarded cluster does not trigger COW anymore.
Use a backing image instead.
