In adding support for this to perl/go bindings I see that this is using
a different style to the existing APIs. With the exception of the
virDomainSetGuestVcpus() API, everything else dealing with CPU maps
uses an 'unsigned char *cpu' & 'int maplen' pair to store the data as
a bitmap. I think we should change this API to also use the bitmap
rather than the textual format as it gives consistency with other
APIs, particularly when mapping into other languages.  For example
in Go, the bitmaps get turned into a boolean array, so it is a very
natural representation to manipulate - the textual format is rather
inconvenient in this respect.

Daniel
