As this patch series only works with -blockdev configurations it is better to
be pushed only after -blockdev is supported. Then 'news' and 'xml' patch need
to be updated to have correct libvirt version.

Diff from v2 [1]:
=================
- move caps patch to top
- add news patch
- add _CAPPED to capabilitity name to distinguish from
  correspondent qemu capabilitiy
- better option explanation in formatdomain.html
- misc tests/english fixes as suggested

We have come to agreement with John in mailing list to support QEMU versions
which do not let use INT64_MAX as "maximum" value. But this will require
changing qemuBlockStorageSourceGetFormatQcow2Props and a lot of other functions
signature (which was not noticed during conversation). Thus I don't add such
a functionality. Anyway the patch requires -blockdev from QEMU so we could only
support single QEMU 3.0 version.
