A global '--format=plain|csv|json|xml' flag could apply to every single
virsh command, causing these methods to print in the corresponding
data format. Thus we'd have no code paths duplicated& flexible data
formatting in many styles
The concept/idea here seems pretty nifty. It starts putting in place a
good foundation for virsh to becoming a widely useful utility. :)
We don't even have to implement it all at once. Instead we can convert
over one function at a time if that's more practical.
We'll probably need another suggested data type as well:
virshPrintCapacityValue(some large capacity numeric type)
That could take a raw byte (or kilobyte?) value then display it
appropriately (ie raw, human readable, etc). ie.:
1979120929996 vs 1,979,120,929,996 vs 1.8TB
