I see, I will try this way and add necessary check for them in next version.

If so, shall we keeping using separate virsh migrate options(like
--comp-zlib-level and --comp-zstd-level)?
Or just use one option (--parallel-comp-level) to pass compression
level, according to the compression method we have chosen?
Separate options, please, (i.e., --comp-zlib-level and
--comp-zstd-level) to be consistent with the API.
