[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v5 5/9] Add XBRLE to ram_save_block and ram_save_live

[Orit Wasserman]

Add migration state to store XBRLE params (enablement and cache size).
In the outgoing check to see if the page is cached and
send compressed page by using save_xbrle_page function.
In the incoming migration check to see if RAM_SAVE_FLAG_XBRLE is set
 decompress the page (by using load_xbrle function).
