migration: disable auto-converge during bulk block migration

auto-converge and block migration currently do not play well together.
During block migration the auto-converge logic detects that ram
migration makes no progress and thus throttles down the vm until
it nearly stalls completely. Avoid this by disabling the throttling
logic during the bulk phase of the block migration.
