[PATCH RFC 3/3] qtest/migration: Use switchover-hold to speedup


From: Peter Xu
Subject: [PATCH RFC 3/3] qtest/migration: Use switchover-hold to speedup
Date: Thu, 1 Jun 2023 21:16:26 -0400

Use the switchover-hold flag rather than tuning bw+downtime to guide test
convergence.

This can achieve similar goal of previous patch "tests/qtest: massively
speed up migration-test" but without magic offset to write or monitoring.

The initial solution can reduce migration-test time from 8min to 1min40s,
this patch can further reduce it from 1m40s to 1m1s per my local test.
