Libguestfs - Aug 2018 - [PATCH v3 4/4] v2v: Add --print-estimate option to print copy size

I rethought this again, as I think that it's a dangerous assumption to
bake qemu-img measure output into our API.

This patch series runs qemu-img measure behind the scenes, but then
parses the output and sums it to a single number which we print.

Doing that required a bit of reworking, moving the Jansson [JSON
parser] bindings from virt-builder into the common directory and
a couple of other minor changes, hence this has grown to 4 commits.

Rich.

Commit bd1c5c9f4dcf38458099db8a0bf4659a07ef055d changed all the code
to use Jansson instead of yajl.  However it didn't change the OCaml
API name (which was still Yajl).

This commit changes the module to a neutral name ("JSON_parser") and
moves it into common/mltools so it can be used by other tools.

This leaves us in a slightly awkward situation of having two JSON-ish
OCaml modules (JSON for creating trees and JSON_parser for parsing
them) with incompatible types.  That is left for future work to
resolve.  (It should be easier to do now that both modules live in the
same directory.)

This is just renaming and general refactoring.  There should be no
change in functionality.

These are file descriptors, not the high level OCaml in_channel/
out_channel type, so we would normally not refer to them as *_chan.

Just renaming, no functional change.

This option prints the estimated size of the data that will be copied
from the source disk.

Currently this overestimates by the size of the qcow2 header, but for
real disk images that doesn't matter much.

For example:

$ virt-builder fedora-27
$ virt-v2v -i disk fedora-27.img -o null --print-estimate

Are you aware that Jansson can't parse all JSON generated by qemu, and 
that the developers of Jansson did not seem sympathetic to patches that 
would make it possible?  Libvirt recently reverted their use of Jansson 
because of its inability to deal with unsigned 64-bit numbers (and 
sadly, RFC7159 does not define bounds for what forms valid JSON numbers, 
but merely leaves it up to implementations to decide for themselves).

This was done initially to avoid much larger patch/series for the
yajl -> jansson conversion.  And then... I forgot :-)

I'd drop the _parser_ from the name, as seems redundant (and makes
both type name, and all its values long enough...).

The rest of it LGTM.

This is not easy to parse, because this output contains every output,
from the info messages to this value.  IMHO a better idea is to make
use of the machine-parseable to print this in some better format
(JSON?), and possibly to a separate output than the normal stdout.

I had already an idea for this, i.e. improve the output of
--machine-readable.  Let me shape it in form of patches.

Regardless, a couple of notes follow.

You can replace this whole using the helper object_get_number:

  let v = object_get_number "required" tree in

Hi,

patches #2, and #3 LGTM; I left notes for patches #1, and #4.
