Imagine if we use 'virsh dumpxml --migratable' for offline domain
to get config to tweak before migration. Currenly cpu section will
be expanded, host-cpu mode turns into custom and migration fails
because of ABI check.
Looks like ABI check does not make much sence for offline migration
but we don't want host-cpu mode to turn into custom in the first place.
Using --migratable is reasonable in this case because this flags
makes changes for inactive configs too like removing automatically
added parts that old versions can not handle.
I suggest not to update cpu for inactive configs. This appoach is
coherent with the way migration works for inactive configs in case
it is not specified externally to migration: function qemuMigrationCookieXMLFormat
don't expand cpu too.
Adding flag for active configs is useless because qemuDomainFormatXML
will clear it in this case. Thus we can skip adding update flag
altogether.

I suppose next usage of libvirt in case one need to migrate with tweaked configs:
inactive domain:
virsh dumpxml DOM --migratable > dom.xml
virsh migrate DOM --offline --persistent --xml dom.xml
active domain:
virsh dumpxml DOM --migratable > active.xml
virsh dumpxml DOM --migratable --inactive > inactive.xml
virsh migrate DOM --persistent --xml active.xml --persistent-xml inactive.xml
