These changes are good for the first patch, in introducing the API.
Plus see my comment in 1/2 about the hunk defining VIR_S3 (or whatever
name we settle on) being part of this patch.

This change should be shuffled into the qemu driver implementation of
the driver backend.

These changes belong to a second patch, implementing the RPC driver
backend.  And don't forget a patch to virsh.

Needs an 'unsigned int flags' argument, even if we always pass 0 for now.

Is this a bitmask or a linear list?  I guess a list makes more sense.
Also, some machines support a hybrid between S3 and S4 (pm-is-supported
--suspend-hybrid), which saves state to disk like S4 but then drops to
S3 for faster resume as long as power is present.  Perhaps a hybrid
state is deserving of a third value in the enum?

We might want to be a bit more "fuzzy" on how we word this, so that we
aren't making impossible promises.  Something like:

Attempt to suspend the node (host machine) for the given duration of
time into the specified state (S3 for suspend to RAM, S4 for suspend to
disk).  Schedule the node's real-time-clock interrupt to resume the node
after the time duration is complete.

(the operation is not supported, or an attempted suspend is already
underway).

You must check for and reject an attempt to use this on a read-only
connection.

Be sure to pass a flags argument on to the driver.

The new API must be in a LIBVIRT_0.9.8 section at the bottom of the
file; we are NOT re-doing 0.9.3.

0.9.8.

needs a flags member.

Do we really need this?  Given that we return exactly two values (0 on
success, -1 on failure), I think this is like other APIs that need no
_ret object (for example, remote_domain_set_blkio_parameters_args),
because the default return values are already handled by the basic RPC
operation.
