I added the 'unknown' member here (and in other enums) to handle situations 
where QEMU is behind KVM in terms of enumerating the various stat types, units, 
etc. I feel this will be a semi-common scenario (old QEMU on a new kernel) and 
with 'unknown', QEMU can at least display the raw data.

That said, I happy skip 'unknown' entries if you think that's better.

Thanks/regards,
-Mark
