It's not limited and can be modified inside the xml, the only limitation is that
the value has to be a power of 2 and for QXL the value must be at least 1024.
There is an exception, qemu can and in some cases updates the value internally,
libvirt after the guest is started will get the actual value from qemu and
update live XML.
