Issue #84: virtio-balloon: Update spec to include features hinting, poison, and reporting
--------------------------------------
Update the device specification for virtio-balloon to include recently added features hinting, poison, and reporting. Both the hinting and poison feature were added some time ago, but not documented. The page reporting Linux implementation is already upstream and was included in the 5.8 [kernel](https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=b0c504f154718904ae49349147e3b7e6ae91ffdc) and the [QEMU](https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/virtio-dev/202004/msg00180.html) portion is already upstream.

Latest posted proposal ("[PATCH v8 0/3] virtio-spec: Add documentation for recently added balloon features") can be found at: https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/virtio-comment/202008/msg00054.html
--------------------------------------

The TC accepts the following proposed changes to the specification:
--------------------------------------

--------------------------------------

The TC agrees to include the above change(s) in specification version(s) "virtio-v1.2-cs01", and future versions of the
specification.

Reminder: A Voting Member must be active in a TC to maintain voting rights. As
the Virtio TC has adopted a standing rule to conduct business only by
electronic ballot, without Meetings, a Voting Member who fails to cast a ballot
in two consecutive Work Product Ballots loses his or her voting rights at the
close of the second ballot missed.
