It's because something can change the network topology on the fly - not
necessarily just libvirt.  Where as previously we were using the
announce mechanism for mainly migration reasons, now we also want
to use it to announce topology changes; those include potentially things
that libvirt gets told by a higher management layer - such as the
failure or one network path.
