[PATCH 1/2] docs: Clarify 'burst' units for QoS

[Michal Privoznik]

The burst attribute for bandwidth specifies how much bytes can be
transmitted in a single burst. Therefore, the unit is in
multiples of 1024 (thus kibibytes) not SI-like 1000. It always
has been like that.

The 'tc' output is still confusing though, for instance:

  # tc class add dev $DEV parent 1: classid 1:1 htb rate 1000kbps burst 2097152
  # tc class show dev vnet2
  class htb 1:1 root rate 8Mbit ceil 8Mbit burst 2Mb cburst 1600b

Please note that 2097152 = 2*1024*1024. Even the man page is
confusing. From tc(8):

  kb or k        Kilobytes
  mb or m        Megabytes

But I guess this is because 'tc' predates IEC standardisation of
binary multiples and thus can't change without breaking scripts
parsing its output.

And while at it, adjust _virNetDevBandwidthRate struct member
description, to make it obvious which members use SI/IEC units.
