* Removed features
* qemu: Remove support for QEMU < 4.2
In accordance with our platform support policy, the oldest supported QEMU
version is now bumped from 3.1 to 4.2.
* New features
* qemu: Add support for specifying vCPU physical address size in bits
Users can now specify the number of vCPU physical address bits with
the `<maxphysaddr>` subelement of the `<cpu>` element.
* Improvements
* esx: Domain XMLs can now be dumped for VMs with two new interface types
One is when the interface is not connected anywhere `type='null'` and one
when it is connected to VMWare Distributed Switch `type='vds'`.
* Bug fixes
* qemu: increase memlock limit for a domain with multiple vfio/vdpa devices
When multiple vfio or vdpa devices are assigned to a domain, the locked
memory limit could be too low to map memory for all devices. The memlock
limit has been increased to be proportional to the number of vdpa/vfio
devices.
Enjoy.
