I'm not convinced that we actually need a new PMSUSPEND_DISK event
callback. The existing callback:

/**
 * virConnectDomainEventPMSuspendCallback:
 * @conn: connection object
 * @dom: domain on which the event occurred
 * @reason: reason why the callback was called, unused currently,
 *          always passes 0
 * @opaque: application specified data
 *
 * This callback occurs when the guest is waken up.
 *
 * The callback signature to use when registering for an event of type
 * VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_ID_PMSuspend with virConnectDomainEventRegisterAny()
 */
typedef void (*virConnectDomainEventPMSuspendCallback)(virConnectPtr conn,
                                                       virDomainPtr dom,
                                                       int reason,
                                                       void *opaque);


already has a 'reason' argumnent that is unused, and could be used
to distinguish between S3 and S4 (memory vs disk).
