Could just simply state this patch is adding the virStreamRecvFlags as a
variant to the virStreamRecv function in order to allow for future
expansion of functionality for processing sparse streams using a @flags
argument.

Instead, consider:

Calling this function with no @flags set (equal to zero) is equivalent
to calling virStreamRecv(stream, data, nbytes).

Should 'zi' be 'zu'?  I realize this is cut-n-paste, so perhaps other
usages could be fixed in a trivial patch as well.

This will be (at least) 3.4.0...

ACK w/ a couple of adjustments.  Feels strange to not see
remote_protocol.x changed at the same time though...
