The output does not change. In fact I think the virsh reimpl of
virBitmapFormat should be killed and replaced with the function we
already have.

Actually, the "resources" is a configruation option and I don't see a
way to change it unless you unplug the disk while CPU time is a
statistics function that changes a lot.

If the VM is offline, then the CPU time is obviously not filled, while
when it's live we should return it.
