We stupidly modeled block job bandwidth after migration
bandwidth, which in turn was an 'unsigned long' and therefore
subject to 32-bit vs. 64-bit interpretations. To work around
the fact that 10-gigabit interfaces are possible but don't fit
within 32 bits, the original interface took the number scaled
as MiB/sec. But this scaling is rather coarse, and it might
be nice to tune bandwidth finer than in megabyte chunks.
Several of the block job calls that can set speed are fed
through a common interface, so it was easier to adjust them all
at once. Note that there is intentionally no flag for the new
virDomainBlockCopy; there, since the API already uses a 64-bit
type always, instead of a possible 32-bit type, and is brand
new, it was easier to just avoid scaling issues. As with the
previous patch that adjusted the query side, omitting the new
flag preserves old behavior, and the documentation now mentions
limits of what happens when a 32-bit machine is on either client
or server side.

ACK, the better granularity may help today, while we are able to keep
the huge range for future expansion.
