--memory-only option is introduced without compression supported. Therefore, this is a freature regression of virsh dump. Now qemu has support dumping memory in kdump-compressed format. This patch is used to add "--compress" and "[--compression-format] <string>" to "virsh dump --memory-only" and send dump-guest-memory command to qemu with dump format specified to one of elf, kdump-zlib, kdump-lzo and kdump-snappy.

I'm not really a fan of using flags for this, since all these new flags are mutually exclusive. This is a strong indication that they should not be flags, and instead be a separate parametere. So IMHO if we wnat to be able to specify a dump format we should have an explicit 'int dumpformat' parameter for it. Yes, I know this would involve a new API.
