Since this isn't really applicable for win32, and it's hard to discover
optional params via guest-info without some extensive changes to how we handle
capabilities negotiation, I think it makes more sense to introduce a new
command for this, something like guest-fsfreeze-freeze-filesystems, which we
can easily discover and properly mark as unsupported on win32.

Other than that looks good.
