Eric Blake 0a6a6b1ae7 blockjob: allow finer bandwidth tuning for set speed 
We stupidly modeled block job bandwidth after migration
bandwidth, which in turn was an 'unsigned long' and therefore
subject to 32-bit vs. 64-bit interpretations.  To work around
the fact that 10-gigabit interfaces are possible but don't fit
within 32 bits, the original interface took the number scaled
as MiB/sec.  But this scaling is rather coarse, and it might
be nice to tune bandwidth finer than in megabyte chunks.

Several of the block job calls that can set speed are fed
through a common interface, so it was easier to adjust them all
at once.  Note that there is intentionally no flag for the new
virDomainBlockCopy; there, since the API already uses a 64-bit
type always, instead of a possible 32-bit type, and is brand
new, it was easier to just avoid scaling issues.  As with the
previous patch that adjusted the query side (commit db33cc24),
omitting the new flag preserves old behavior, and the
documentation now mentions limits of what happens when a 32-bit
machine is on either client or server side.

         LibVirt : simple API for virtualization

  Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
