I don't think we need this qemuDomainObjAbortAsyncJobRequested function. It's
much easier and shorter if the caller just checks priv->job.asyncAbort
directly. The current code uses functions only for changing the values or more
complicated reads.

AbortJob API was never a synchronous one and I don't think we need to change
it. Not to mention that this code unlocks and locks vm without holding an
extra reference to it. And even if it did so, it cannot guarantee that the job
it's checking in the loop is the same one it tried to cancel. It's quite
unlikely but the original job could have finished and another one could have
been started while this code was sleeping.

In other words, I'd just change to do:

        VIR_DEBUG("Cancelling job at client request");
+       qemuDomainObjAbortAsyncJob(vm);
        qemuDomainObjEnterMonitor(driver, vm);
        ret = qemuMonitorMigrateCancel(priv->mon);
        qemuDomainObjExitMonitor(driver, vm);

This check seems to be to late and that complicates the code later. If we keep
qemuDomainAbortJob calling qemuMonitorMigrateCancel in qemuDomainAbortJob, we
may count on that and check priv.job.asyncAbort before entering the monitor
to tell QEMU to start migrating in qemuMigrationRun. If the abort is not
requested by then, it may only happen after we call qemuMonitorMigrateTo* and
in that case the migration will be properly aborted by
qemuMonitorMigrateCancel.

This hack is unnecessary when we do what I suggested above.

But in any case, this patch does not actually allow the migration to be
cancelled at any phase. It just allow the migration to be cancelled during
Perform phase or before. And the cancellation would actually happen only
during Perform phase thus possibly doing unnecessary Prepare phase in case
someone tried to cancel the migration at the very beginning. However, since
even such improvement in this area is a nice step forward and this particular
case of aborting migration before it gets to Perform phase is the most visible
issue, we can address the rest of the issues later.

I'm looking forward to a simplified v2 :-)
