libvirt-guests.sh when run with more active guests than requested to
shut down in parallel will run until it times out only shutting down
the first set of guests.

This patch fixes parallel shutdown by fixing a variable scope issue
where check_guests_shutdown unintentionally reset $guests which
prevented further progress.

So I wanted to also send a patch for this                        ^^^^^^
to be adjusted and realized it's not needed as that's a different
variable.

However, I also realized we're not using 'local' anywhere.  We should
probably do that (maybe instead of renames in the future), so I'll add
it to the BiteSizedTasks, I got to the half of the file and found out it
can't be done with a regexp replace =)

Hi Martin,
I agree that a general overhaul would be nice, but at least I couldn't affort the time this week to do so (away next week).
I guess you hit the fact that some functions intentionally do so with your regexp :-)
Also I was unsure about different shell implementations in doing some of the changes, so I didn't want to do a bigger change in a rush.

Thanks for adding it to the BiteSizedTasks - I think that is just the right thing to do.
