Add event notification for guest balloon changes
After setting a balloon target value, applications have to continually poll 'query-balloon' to determine whether the guest has reacted to this request. The virtio-balloon backend knows exactly when the guest has reacted though, and thus it is possible to emit a JSON event to tell the mgmt application whenever the guest balloon changes. This introduces a new 'qemu_balloon_changed()' API which is to be called by balloon driver backends, whenever they have a change in balloon value. This takes the 'actual' balloon value, as would be found in the BalloonInfo struct. The qemu_balloon_change API emits a JSON monitor event which looks like: {"timestamp": {"seconds": 1337162462, "microseconds": 814521}, "event": "BALLOON_CHANGE", "data": {"actual": 944766976}} * balloon.c, balloon.h: Introduce qemu_balloon_changed() for emitting balloon change events on the monitor * hw/virtio-balloon.c: Invoke qemu_balloon_changed() whenever the guest changes the balloon actual value * monitor.c, monitor.h: Define QEVENT_BALLOON_CHANGE Signed-off-by: NDaniel P.
