Looks a bit long to me, personally I'd prefer "comp-" prefix, feel free
to ignore my preference though :-)
Anyway, this is a rare exception when it makes sense not to put the new
stuff at the end of the list. All the new options should go just after
--compressed options so that they are all together.

I think the options should contain the method name rather than some
abbreviated form of it.

The above description is IMHO enough, the rest can go into virsh man
page.

Same here.

And here.

It would be more compact and still readable and clear as
char **val = virStringSplit(opt, ",", 0);

I'd say something like: --compressed activates compression, the
compression method is chosen with --compression-method. When no method
is specified, a hypervisor default method will be used.

--compressed and --compression-* options should be documented next to
each other and ideally in a separate paragraph.

This should go into the same place where the options are documented.
