For now this is a placeholder, real info will appear once the bitmap
changes in the migration thread series is integrated.

As long as you are touching here: s/ :/:/

Inconsistent on whether we have a '.' prior to the (since 1.2) marking.

Since HMP only prints this stat when it is non-zero, should this field
be marked optional?  Then again, once you have dirty page tracking, I
suspect this would never be zero (or even showing an explicit zero would
help detect stalls).

What is easier for libvirt to have here.

At the beggining, this value is going to be wrong/cero. I can:
- not print it until it is != 0
- print a big enough number )
- make it optional?  I guess this would alse be more difficult for
  libvirt.
- put your good idea here?

Later, Juan.

I see your point about querying early enough that there is not yet
enough data to have a good estimate.  In that case, either outputting 0
or omitting the field will do the trick.  Libvirt already has to support
older qemu that always omitted the field, and it is a one-liner code
addition in libvirt to say that if the field is omitted, treat it like
'0'.  I'm not even quite sure what libvirt will be able to do with this
number; libvirt made some unfortunate API decisions where migration
statistics are exposed to the user in a hard-coded struct
(virDomainJobInfo), and since we didn't allow for the struct to grow
without breaking ABI, exposing additional information would require a
new libvirt API.  So don't let libvirt hold up the inclusion of this
useful information on the qemu side of things.

Maybe another option would be to return [U]INT_MAX when there is not
enough data to yet provide a valid number, where having a non-zero value
at least lets people know that the stat will be available in a later call.
