QAPI merge plans
- should be 100% back compat
- qmp moved over
- hmp moved over
- 1st pass, core infrastructure (includes test framework)
- 2nd pass, command conversion
- 3rd pass, more controversial bits
- adds dependencies: glib and python
- some testing based on kvm-unit-test micro-os instance (e.g. added a balloon
   and run commands against it to test)
   - add more functionality here? (kvm autotest is slow, above is quick)
     - will hit some point where full functionality is needed
   - have a mini linux to do this (lags where driver updates are part of test)
Depending on what we want to include in such tests, we might want to
have tests with a badly behaving kernel, which Linux hopefully isn't.

Yeah, that's a big advantage of kvm-unit-test is that you can't really hack the upstream version of virtio-balloon to do evil things.
