just make that a parameter, same flexibility but less cmd explosion and complexity.

Also, _iff_ (see reply  we keep the CLI entries for pct/qm it should just be a single command
there, any difference should be handled in the parameters; it's internal after all
and we want to avoid that there's more internal commands then externals someday ;)

Target and source should be part of the parameters on either call (pre/post, src/target),
it is relevant info and should be easily available. Some param info like offline/online
migration could be relevant too, but we can always extend on that, so in that regard it
can be fine to stop smaller, to avoid going over board and having to keep all that info
for backward compat. Any parameter would need to be encoded in the example then.

Some more general note, the example is better than nothing, but a nice list/table
directly in the docs would be really good to have. This could be done upfront, before
adding new hooks - best for now to duplicate it for both CT and VM chapter (if sensible
it can live in its own guest-hook-list.adoc and just get included twice). Including
the example script as an appendix would be a nice touch too.
