[dts] [PATCH v2 00/16] Support parallel multiple virtual machines management

[Marvin Liu]

This series of patches will support parallel multiple virtual machine
management function. Qemu default initialzation process will be enhanced
for parallel start. With new model, efficiency for VMs management can be
significantly improved.

In my environment, test suite can start and control 2 * 63 VMs in two
minutes with this new module.

 v2: add QGA control session back
     close logger handler when quit for virtual machine
     optimize allocate display port function for parallel mode
     add some descriptions in virt_global config file
