That's expected since QEMU finally implemented a migration event, which
allowed us to stop polling every 50 ms. Libvirt will only call
query-migrate at the end of a migration or when virsh domjobinfo is
called.

The reason why you don't see anything interesting in the output is NBD
storage migration. With new enough QEMU libvirt will first migrate
storage using QEMU's integrated NBD server and then "migrate" QMP
command will called. With old QEMU storage migration was done by the
"migrate" command itself. Thus calling query-migrate while storage is
migrated (i.e., before migrate was called) does not provide anything. I
guess it should be possible to also check the progress of all running
block jobs so that we can report statistics about ongoing storage
migration even when NBD is used.
