[libvirt] [PATCH 10/11] qemu: Introduce qemuDomainSetIOThreadParams

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1545732

Implement the QEMU driver mechanism in order to set the polling
parameters for an IOThread within the bounds specified by the
QEMU qapi parameter passing.

Based heavily on patches originally posted by Pavel Hrdina
<phrdina at redhat.com>, but modified to only handle alterations
for a running guest. For the most part the API names changed,
the typed parameters removed the poll enabled value, and the
capabilities check was moved to just before the live attempt
to set. Since changes are only supported for a running guest,
no guest XML alterations were kept.

+ * @params: Pointer to params list
+ * @nparams: Number of params to be parsed
+ * @iothread: Buffer to store the values
+ *
+ * The following is a description of each value parsed:
+ *
+ *  - "poll-max-ns" for each IOThread is the maximum time in nanoseconds
+ *    to allow each polling interval to occur. A polling interval is a
+ *    period of time allowed for a thread to process data before it returns
+ *    the CPU quantum back to the host. A value set too small will not allow
+ *    the IOThread to run long enough on a CPU to process data. A value set
+ *    too high will consume too much CPU time per IOThread failing to allow
+ *    other threads running on the CPU to get time. A value of 0 (zero) will
+ *    disable the polling.
+ *
+ * - "poll-grow" - factor to grow the current polling time when deemed
+ *   necessary. If a 0 (zero) value is provided, QEMU currently doubles
+ *   its polling interval unless the current value is greater than the
+ *   poll-max-ns.
+ *
+ * - "poll-shrink" - divisor to reduced the current polling time when deemed
+ *   necessary. If a 0 (zero) value is provided, QEMU resets the polling
+ *   interval to 0 (zero) allowing the poll-grow to manipulate the time.
+ *
+ * QEMU keeps track of the polling time elapsed and may grow or shrink the
+ * its polling interval based upon its heuristic algorithm. It is possible
+ * that calculations determine that it has found a "sweet spot" and no
+ * ajustments are made. The polling time value is not available.
+ *
+ * Returns 0 on success, -1 on failure with error set.
