Use of qemuDomainValidateVcpuInfo in the helpers for hotplug and unplug
of vCPUs can lead to spurious errors reported such as:
internal error: qemu didn't report thread id for vcpu 'XX'"
The reason for this is that qemuDomainValidateVcpuInfo validates the
state of all vCPUs against the expected state of vCPUs. If an unplug
operation completed before libvirt was unable to process it yet the
expected state could not reflect the current state.
To avoid spurious errors the qemuDomainHotplugAddVcpu and
qemuDomainRemoveVcpu functions are modified to do localized validation
only for the vCPUs they actually modify.
We also now ensure that the cgroups are modified before bailing out on
error for any vCPUs which passed validation.
Additionally in order for qemuDomainRemoveVcpuAlias to be able to find
the unplugged vCPU we must ensure that qemuDomainRefreshVcpuInfo does
not clear out the alias in case when the vCPU is no longer reported by
qemu.

v3 addresses my review feedback of the original patch, as well as
rewrites the commit message for more clarity.
