Does this mean that -S is now ignored in the common case? Wouldn't it be
better to change only the case without -S? Otherwise I guess libvirt
will get quite confused.

Not sure if the concept of a single GlobalStore that calls all the
individual handlers for each piece of global state is optimal.
Can't we use something like vmstate_register()? Perhaps even the same
function, just with dev == NULL? (Actually, you even do this below, to
register the global state. So I guess I'm only disagreeing on the
granularity of having only a single section with a single handler
function for the whole global state.)

Could this be optional and suppressed for "running"? Then we should be
able to keep compatibility with older versions in the common case.
