Or maybe we document that the virDomainResume() api tracks just the
resume state, then we add a new libvirt event that says the result of
any attempt at a sync operation.  Then when you resume, and <on_resume>
says to attempt an auto-sync, then you can also listen for the libvirt
event that tells you the status of the sync (whether it succeeded (and
to what timestamp) or failed).
