Don't get me wrong, I don't think this is a killer feature.  But when I
initially implemented compression, I definitely would have done it through
the API if we had had a "flags" parameter available for virDomainSave().  Now
that we have a ManagedSave that does have a flags parameter, I figured we do
it the right way.  I think it's a little cleaner, and more intuitive, to do
it through the API, and it makes the feature available to hypervisors other
than qemu.
