This protocol is intended for guest machines with assigned hardware
devices to send encoded video and other informations that will be
handled as a normal display by Spice.

New GPU devices are capable to capture and encode video in an
efficient way. As the GPU in this case is assigned to the guest
and not the host is easier if the guest do the hard job.

This version of the patchset add support for sending cursor shape
to the server.

Frediano Ziglio (4):
  Add protocol to send streams to server
  Add a message to control guest streaming
  Add error reports from server to guest
  Add support for setting cursor shape from guest
