Current we put all migration capability in one line, which make it hard
to read them and someone them are missed due to terminal width.

This patch formats it to print 4 in one line, which looks like this now:

capabilities:
              xbzrle: off         rdma-pin-all: off        auto-converge: off          zero-blocks: off
            compress:  on               events: off         postcopy-ram: off               x-colo: off
         release-ram: off                block: off          return-path: off pause-before-switchover: off
             multifd: off        dirty-bitmaps: off   postcopy-blocktime: off  late-block-activate: off
     x-ignore-shared: off

This assumes migration capability names are at most 20 characters long.
late-block-activate is pushing it already: 19 characters.

It adds up to 104 characters per line, which is rather wide.

What about putting each capability on its own line, just like globals,
and just like "info migrate_capabilities"?

(qemu) info migrate
globals:
store-global-state: on
only-migratable: off
send-configuration: on
send-section-footer: on
decompress-error-check: on
clear-bitmap-shift: 18
capabilities:
xbzrle: off
rdma-pin-all: off
auto-converge: off
[...]

This looks good, while would reader may feel difficult to clarify from which
one the capabilities stops. 

How about add 4 space at the beginning of each capability?

Would the output be too long? How about wrap two capability into one line?

IMHO the simpler way is just not to display the capabilities on
'info migrate' at all.  If people want the list of capabilities there's
already 'info migrate_capabiltiies' they can use.

It was nice displaying them at the start of 'info migrate'
when we only had a few, but nowe we've got so many it's perhaps
easier just to omit them.
