What this PR does / why we need it:
this explicitly documents that VMs with explicitly defined cpu limits (not ones created by the autocpulimits feature) will not go through parallel live migration as per this line of code .

Hi @DorBreger. Thanks for your PR.

I'm waiting for a kubevirt member to verify that this patch is reasonable to test. If it is, they should reply with /ok-to-test on its own line. Until that is done, I will not automatically test new commits in this PR, but the usual testing commands by org members will still work.

Regular contributors should join the org to skip this step.

Once the patch is verified, the new status will be reflected by the ok-to-test label.

I understand the commands that are listed here.

high dirty-rate or low resources like network bandwidth and CPU. On such scenarios, see the following
alternative strategies below.

For virtual machines that explicitly set resource limits, multithreaded migration is disabled and single-threaded migration will be used instead.
