Why we need args?
When plugin outputs log files, only binary path can't distinguish multiple
runs if the binary passed with different args.
This is bad for CI using plugin.

Hi Demin,

thanks for your contribution.

Can it be solved simply by encoding this in name of log file from the CI 
run script?
$ cmd="/usr/bin/echo Hello world"
$ out_file="$(echo "$cmd" | sed -e 's/\s/_/').log"
$ qemu -plugin... -d plugin -D "$out_file" $cmd

I can see some good points to add this new API, but for the use case 
presented in commit message, I'm not sure to see what it solves.
