Daniel P. Berrangé cbde7be900 migrate: remove QMP/HMP commands for speed, downtime and cache size
The generic 'migrate_set_parameters' command handle all types of param.

Only the QMP commands were documented in the deprecations page, but the
rationale for deprecating applies equally to HMP, and the replacements
exist. Furthermore the HMP commands are just shims to the QMP commands,
so removing the latter breaks the former unless they get re-implemented.

Mao Zhongyi afb5d01cb6 monitor/hmp-cmds: improvements for the 'info migrate'
When running:

(qemu) info migrate

store-global-state: on
only-migratable: off
...
xbzrle transferred: 640892 kbytes
xbzrle pages: 16645936 pages
xbzrle cache miss: 1525426
xbzrle cache miss rate: 0.09
xbzrle encoding rate: 91.42
xbzrle overflow: 40896
...
compression pages: 377710 pages
compression busy: 0
compression busy rate: 0.00
compressed size: 463169457
compression rate: 3.33

Add units for 'xbzrle cache miss' and 'compressed size',
make it easier to read.

ChenLiang 27af7d6ea5 xbzrle: optimize XBZRLE to decrease the cache misses
Avoid hot pages being replaced by others to remarkably decrease cache
misses

Sample results with the test program which quote from xbzrle.txt ran in
vm:(migrate bandwidth:1GE and xbzrle cache size 8MB)

the test program:

include <stdlib.h>
include <stdio.h>
int main()
 {
        char *buf = (char *) calloc(4096, 4096);
        while (1) {
            int i;
            for (i = 0; i < 4096 * 4; i++) {
                buf[i * 4096 / 4]++;
            }
            printf(".");
        }
 }

cache-miss-rate is 98.7%, totally miss.
