Each <domainsnapshot> can now contain an optional <memory>
element that describes how the VM state was handled, similar
to disk snapshots. The new element will always appear in
output; for back-compat, an input that lacks the element will
assume 'no' or 'internal' according to the domain state.
Along with this change, it is now possible to pass <disks> in
the XML for an offline snapshot; this also needs to be wired up
in a future patch, to make it possible to choose internal vs.
external on a per-disk basis for each disk in an offline domain.
At that point, using the --disk-only flag for an offline domain
will be able to work.
For some examples below, remember that qemu supports the
following snapshot actions:
qemu-img: offline external and internal disk
savevm: online internal VM and disk
migrate: online external VM
transaction: online external disk
=====
<domainsnapshot>
<memory snapshot='no'/>
...
</domainsnapshot>
implies that there is no VM state saved (mandatory for
offline and disk-only snapshots, not possible otherwise);
using qemu-img for offline domains and transaction for online.
=====
<domainsnapshot>
<memory snapshot='internal'/>
...
</domainsnapshot>
state is saved inside one of the disks (as in qemu's 'savevm'
system checkpoint implementation). If needed in the future,
we can also add an attribute pointing out _which_ disk saved
the internal state; maybe disk='vda'.
=====
<domainsnapshot>
<memory snapshot='external' file='/path/to/state'/>
...
</domainsnapshot>
This is not wired up yet, but future patches will allow this to
control a combination of 'virsh save /path/to/state' plus disk
snapshots from the same point in time.
=====
So for 0.10.2, I plan to implement this table of combinations,
with '*' designating new code and '+' designating existing code
reached through new combinations of xml and/or the existing
DISK_ONLY flag:
Hm, things would be a little cleaner without the DISK_ONLY flag.

This error message sounds a little bit awkward. I'd write something
along "memory filename is supported only with external snapshot".
The other question that comes into my mind is what happens if the user
requests an external snapshot but specifies no filename. I suppose you
plan hypervisor specific behavior.
