Historically, the dumpxml command reject any unknown arguments,
for instance:
virsh dumpxml fedora xxx
However, after v8.5.0-rc1~31 the second argument ('xxx') is
treated as an XPath, but it's not that clearly visible.
Therefore, require the --xpath switch, like this:
virsh dumpxml fedora --xpath xxx
Yes, this breaks already released virsh, but I think we can argue
that the pool of users of this particular function is very small.
The sooner we do this change, the better.
