Andrea Bolognani 2a7d957596 qapi: Expand documentation for LostTickPolicy 
The current documentation is fairly terse and not easy to decode
for someone who's not intimately familiar with the inner workings
of timer devices. Expand on it by providing a somewhat verbose
description of what behavior each policy will result in, as seen
from both the guest OS and host point of view.

# @qmp_capabilities:
#
# Enable QMP capabilities.
#
# Arguments:
#
# @enable: An optional list of QMPCapability values to enable. The
# client must not enable any capability that is not
# mentioned in the QMP greeting message. If the field is not
# provided, it means no QMP capabilities will be enabled.
# (since 2.12)
#
# Example:
#
# -> { "execute": "qmp_capabilities",
# "arguments": { "enable": [ "oob" ] } }
# <- { "return": {} }
#
# Notes: This command is valid exactly when first connecting: it must be
# issued before any other command will be accepted, and will fail once the
# monitor is accepting other commands. (see qemu docs/interop/qmp-spec.txt)
#
# The QMP client needs to explicitly enable QMP capabilities, otherwise
# all the QMP capabilities will be turned off by default.

# signifies a stable release.
#
# @package: QEMU will always set this field to an empty string. Downstream

# @LostTickPolicy:
#
# Policy for handling lost ticks in timer devices. Ticks end up getting
# lost when, for example, the guest is paused.
#
# @discard: throw away the missed ticks and continue with future injection
# normally. The guest OS will see the timer jump ahead by a
# potentially quite significant amount all at once, as if the
# intervening chunk of time had simply not existed; needless to
# say, such a sudden jump can easily confuse a guest OS which is
# not specifically prepared to deal with it. Assuming the guest
# OS can deal correctly with the time jump, the time in the guest
# and in the host should now match.
#
# @delay: continue to deliver ticks at the normal rate. The guest OS will
# not notice anything is amiss, as from its point of view time will
# have continued to flow normally. The time in the guest should now
# be behind the time in the host by exactly the amount of time during
# which ticks have been missed.
#
# @slew: deliver ticks at a higher rate to catch up with the missed ticks.
# The guest OS will not notice anything is amiss, as from its point
# of view time will have continued to flow normally. Once the timer
# has managed to catch up with all the missing ticks, the time in
# the guest and in the host should match.

#
# Stop all guest VCPU execution.
#
# Since: 0.14.0
#
# Notes: This function will succeed even if the guest is already in the stopped
# state. In "inmigrate" state, it will ensure that the guest

# Notes: A guest may or may not respond to this command. This command

#
# Notes: This command will succeed if the guest is currently running. It
# will also succeed if the guest is in the "inmigrate" state; in

# in SUSPENDED state. Return an error otherwise.
#
# Since: 1.1
#
# Returns: nothing.
#
# Note: prior to 4.0, this command does nothing in case the guest

# Notes: This command only exists as a stop-gap. Its use is highly

# that rely on long term stability guarantees should NOT
# use this command.
#
# Known limitations:
#
# * This command is stateless, this means that commands that depend
# on state information (such as getfd) might not work
#
# * Commands that prompt the user for data don't currently work

# Example:

# @change:
#
# This command is multiple commands multiplexed together.
#
# @device: This is normally the name of a block device but it may also be 'vnc'.
# when it's 'vnc', then sub command depends on @target
#
# @target: If @device is a block device, then this is the new filename.
# If @device is 'vnc', then if the value 'password' selects the vnc
# change password command. Otherwise, this specifies a new server URI
# address to listen to for VNC connections.
#
# @arg: If @device is a block device, then this is an optional format to open
# the device with.
# If @device is 'vnc' and @target is 'password', this is the new VNC
# password to set. See change-vnc-password for additional notes.
#
# Returns: Nothing on success.
# If @device is not a valid block device, DeviceNotFound
#
# Notes: This interface is deprecated, and it is strongly recommended that you
# avoid using it. For changing block devices, use
