Note to myself: I would really love not to have to write so much
boilerplate code each time that we want to add a parameter/capability.

Adding the name, the documentation, and the check to set it up should be
all that be necesary.

A parameter needs to be defined twiced in qapi, 6 times in migration.c
and another one in hmp.  Capabilities are a better, but still room to 
improvement.

Later, Juan.
