Hmmm... This is perhaps quite a difference as you're now unblocking all
threads for HandleBlockJob and HandleSpiceMigrated.

Using virCondBroadcast means all threads waiting on the condition will
be unblocked as opposed to unblocking 'at least one of the threads' when
using virCondSignal - for some reason that just doesn't feel right.

I can certainly understand unblocking everything waiting for
HandleTrayChange since it's a single physical block and perhaps
HandleSpiceMigrate since that seems to be a single SPICE server
transferring things (such as perhaps ports). Whereas, it just feels like
there could be multiple causes for BlockJob wanting synchronized access.

I guess I'd like to read others input on this.

The other patches seem mostly reasonable - it's just this one that's
causing me to think longer and question things.
