[Libguestfs] [PATCH 0/6] v2v: rhv-upload-plugin: Support multiple connections

[Nir Soffer]

Update the plugin to API_VERSION 2, and enable parallel threading model. With
unordered writes in qemu-img, and 8 threads in nbdkit, matching number of
parallel coroutines in qemu-img, I see about 50% speedup compared with current
master.

I tested this on a vm, using NFS storage provided by another vm, and accessing
ovirt-engine on a third vm. Results are not stable, and can vary by 100%
between runs. I'm comparing the best result from 3-5 runs.

We need to test these changes with real images, real servers, and real storage
to get more reliable results, but I think we see a clear trend. I will try to
test this RHV scale lab next week.
