This feels like a write-only command. How do I query what it is
currently set to?
I'm also afraid that we aren't learning our lessons from migrate.
Adding one new command per new tunable does not scale very well in the
number of commands that need to be maintained or that have to be wired
up in management software; better is adding a single command pair for
set/get that can be easily introspected (to see when new tunables are
added), by taking an array of tunables where each tunable is a struct
containing name, type, and value information. Something like:
{"execute":"test-vmstates-set-tuning", "arguments":{ "list":[
{ "name":"sinterval", "type":"int", "value":100 },
{ "name":"other", "type":"...", "value":... }
]}}
{"return": {}}
and a counterpart:
{"execute":"test-vmstates-get-tuning" }
{"return": [
{ "name":"sinterval", "type":"int", "value":100 },
{ "name":"other", "type":"...", "value":... }
]}

This range limit should also be mentioned in the public API (.json) file.
