Just like I've added support for setting rx_queue_size (in
c56cdf259 and friends), qemu just gained support for setting tx
ring size.

diff to v2:
- rebase to current HEAD

There's no fundamental change since v1. It's just discussion on this patch that
makes me send newer versions because the older ones do not apply cleanly
anymore.

I thought that we have a separate function for error checking already
(like we have with qemuProcessPrepareDomain for all stuff that changes
live XML) and wanted to tell you it should be part of that.  Well, we
don't, I guess that's another idea for BiteSizedTasks, isn't it? :)

ACK with the version change.
