Although the canonical source of reference for QMP commands is
qapi-schema.json, for consistency's sake, update qmp-commands.hx to
state the list of supported transactionable operations, namely:
drive-backup
blockdev-backup
blockdev-snapshot-internal-sync
abort
block-dirty-bitmap-add
block-dirty-bitmap-clear
NB: The 'block-dirty-bitmap-add' and 'block-dirty-bitmap-add' commands
will be available once the in-review "transactionless incremental
backup" patch series[1] is merged upstream.
