For compatibility reasons virDomainSetVcpus needs to add vcpus as non
hotpluggable which means that the users whill not be able to unplug it
after the VM has started. Add a flag that will allow to tell the API
that the unpluggable vcpus are okay.

The I<--maximum> flag controls the maximum number of virtual cpus that can
