info migrate to print it always.  Thanks.

For page-size?  I don't expect it.  And if I want a sentinel values,
UINT64_MAX, UINT64_MAX-1 and friends looks good enough for me.

size_t is 64 bits on any host that is able to handle 16TiB guests O:-)
But I am indifferent to uint64_t or size_t (I am only on 64 bit machines,
so it is the same for me).  That would only help in 32bits hosts, but I
am pretty sure that nobody is using them seriously (for migration)
because all the 32bit bugs that I get on migration is from the build
bots, not real users.

Later, Juan.
